Amidst all the controversy surrounding Vijay's Mersal, its Telugu version Adirindhi has been gearing up for release for quite a while now. It is already days later than the proposed release date. When Prasoon Joshi, Chief of the Censor Board, was quizzed about it, he explained the situation.
He stated that Mersal will release in Telugu without any cuts at the insistence of the censor board. "The film's content should speak for itself and not the controversy. Telugu version of the film is exactly the same as its Tamil version", he said.
Asked whether the film will have any cuts, Mr. Joshi said: "None whatsoever."
This is good news for Adirindhi.
Here is the official making video of magician character played by Vijay in Mersal. Must watch for all Thalapathy fans:
