On Monday (October 25), film ‘actor’ Suriya Sivakumar released the trailer of his upcoming film Jai Bhim in Hindi.
The film is based on a real life incident that happened in 1993 where a man from the Irular tribe was convicted by the police due and was later found missing from the police station. His wife Senggeni seeks help of an advocate to get justice for her husband.
The film is dashed with the trademark elements of ‘porali’ films with images of Karl Marx, Dr. Ambedkar and ‘Periyar’ E.V. Ramasamy Naicker.
Suriya had announced on October 25 that the trailer for the film has been released in four language and that the Hindi trailer was on its way.
Following this, netizens called out the actor’s hypocrisy for releasing his film in Hindi as he was the one who had strongly virtue-signaled against alleged ‘Hindi Imposition’ when the new National Education Policy was released.
Lol. Whatever happened to #HindiTheriyathuPoda. What is this new breed of Woke Capitalists that we have amongst us? Hypocrites. https://t.co/Q2auZkqmha
