Dhanush, the acclaimed actor and filmmaker, is currently at the center of a huge controversy despite his recent success. His landmark 50th film, Raayan, is doing exceptionally well. However, this success has been overshadowed by the recent news that Dhanush has been banned. In other words, he has been given a red card by the Tamil Film Producers' Council (TFPC). This article takes a detailed look at the reasons behind this ban and its implications.

The Tamil Film Producers' Council has taken a serious step by banning Dhanush. This action is in response to a complaint filed by Sri Thenandal Films, a reputed production house. The complaint alleges that Dhanush left a project after accepting an advance and did not show up for the shoot despite having given prior assurances.

This issue is not an isolated incident. Reports suggest that Dhanush has faced similar allegations from multiple producers. These producers allege that he accepted advance payments but failed to deliver on his commitments. As a result, the TFPC has imposed a ban on Dhanush, preventing him from starting any new projects without the board’s approval. This measure is intended to address and prevent further complications related to unfinished projects and broken commitments.

However, the TFPC’s decision has not gone unchallenged. Nadigar Sangam, the influential association representing Tamil film actors, has vehemently opposed the former’s ban on Dhanush. Key members like Karthi, Karunas and Poochi Murugan have openly criticised the unilateral action of the TFPC.
