Sai Pallavi and Sivakarthikeyan's recent release 'Amaran' became the worst nightmare for VV Vaageesan, an engineering student from Chennai. The issue escalated so much that Vaaggeesan sent a legal notice to the producers of 'Amaran'. The Tamil film 'Amaran' is based on the life of Major Mukund, an Ashoka Chakra awardee, who died during an operation to counter-terrorism. The film is an adaptation of the book series 'India's Most Fearless: True Stories of Modern Military Heroes' written by Shiv Aroor and Rahul Singh. 'Amaran' is produced by Kamal Haasan under the banner of Raj Kamal Film Productions.

'Amaran' and the lawsuit against it

Sivakarthikeyan and Sai Pallavi portray the lead couple Mukund and Indhu. In the movie, there's a scene where Sai Pallavi tosses a crumpled paper at Sivakarthikeyan with her mobile number written on it. But the makers didn't use a fictional or a non-operational number, in reality, the phone number belongs to Vaageesan and it is linked to his bank accounts and official documents. Vaaggeesan has dragged the producers of the film in court and has filed a lawsuit against them. The aspiring engineer is suing them for Rs 1.1 crore.
