It is his inimitable style of analysing and reviewing films that brought him popularity.Maaran turned to direction last year, and this movie was titled ‘ANTI INDIAN’. The story, direction, dialogue and screenplay has been handled by Maran, and the film is bankrolled by Moon Productions. The music department is also helmed by the director himself.
The motion poster ‘Blue Sattai’ Maran’s Anti Indian was released on May 14. The film is shot in a satirical style based on contemporary issues of religion and politics. Earlier this year, ‘Blue Sattai' Maran shared that the Central Board of Film Certification had refused to certify his film. "After watching the film, The board refused the film. As a result, We have decided to approach the revising committee for reconsideration. The film will be released at appropriate time,” he said.
After a long-drawn legal battle to get censor ended and the movie had recently managed to get U/A certification with few minor cuts. Blue Sattai Maran recently tweeted on his Twitter page, "IRRESISTIBLE. From 38 cuts to Zero cuts.Time to thank the Honourable Court for the historic verdict. A shot in the arm for small budget film producers of Tamil Cinema who are intended to make bold movies."
