Tamil Nadu CM Jayalalitha's appearance in Veerappan's film

Director AMR Ramesh’s Vana Yuddham, a bio-pic on sandalwood smuggler Veerappan is almost complete.

The latest buzz is that actress Jayachithra plays the role of Tamilnadu Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa in the film.

Says Ramesh, 'We will have Jayachithra playing the role of the Chief Minister in the film. During the period of Veerappan’s
encounter, it was the then CM Jayalalithaa who gave all the freedom to DGP Vijayakumar in terms of carrying forth the operation.'

'My movie would not throw Veerappan in bad light. We have done enough research and I don't see any controversy in it'.
