The Supreme Court Thursday declined the petition by Sohan Roy - the producer and director of film 'DAM 999' - challenging a ban on the screening of the film in Tamil Nadu. Sohan Roy, the director and producer of ' Dam 999' filed a complaint saying that the film was released everywhere but in Tamilnadu, so the court should allow for release here too. The court has not taken that into heed as they say that an entire state's well being is more important to them than an individual's wish.
The film was supposed to be released on the 25th of November 2011 but was being postponed due to unavoidable reasons. The ban has been extended time to time and the present ban is for three months. Dam 999 stars Ashish Vidyarthi and Rajit Kapur and was shot in Kerala.
