Varisu lands in serious trouble

Thalapathy Vijay is on a mission to make inroads into the Tollywood market with his upcoming film Varisu. The film will be relasing in Telugu as Varasudu and it will lock horns with Mega Star Chiranjeevi's Waltair Veerayya and Natasimha Balakrishna's Veera Simha Reddy. The film is directed by award-winning director Vamsi Paidipally.

When everything is going right for the film, the makers landed in serious trouble as people complained against them for torturing and tormenting animals. They alleged that the Varisu team during the shooting tortured five elephants. Following this, the Animal Welfare Board of India issued notices to Varisu makers for torturing the elephants and casting them in the film without obtaining prior permission.

It has to be seen how the Varisu makers react to this controversy. The film stars Rashmika Mandanna as the female lead with Thaman being the music director. Prabhu, Sarath Kumar, Prakash Raj, Jayasudha, Srikanth, Shaam, Yogi Babu, Sangeetha, and Samyuktha are starring in the film.
