We had reported earlier that Udhayanidhi Stalin had
moved court regarding the state government’s refusal to exempt his
pongal release ‘Gethu’ from entertainment tax stating that the title was
not a Tamil word.

The case again came up yesterday and the Government
pleader put forth the explanation that ‘Gethu’ is not a Tamil word and
further if the team had spelt it as ‘Kethu’ in English it was ok but
since they spelt it as ‘Gethu’ it cannot be accepted !!!. The Director
of Tamil Develpment Department has also confirmed in his petition that
the title was not a Tamil word. The Judge then posted the case for the
29th of January.
