Venkat Prabhu's 'Manmatha Leelai' faces a title issue ahead of its release

After the blockbuster success of 'Maanaadu', director Venkat Prabhu is back with a quickie 'Manmatha Leelai' and the film is slated to release tomorrow( April 1). film with the same title 'Manmadha Leelai' starring Kamal Haasan was released in 1976, and K Balachander's directorial was a cult hit. The makers of 1976 'Manmadha Leelai' have now moved to court to refrain Venkat Prabhu from using the title for his new film.
The last time refraining has turned into a problem for the film. Hence the makers are now waiting for the court's verdict and Venkat Prabhu's decision on the title to see whether the film faces any change or not. Earlier, Venkat Prabhu's directorial 'Mass' starring Suriya in the lead role faced a title issue for its English word, and the film's title was later changed to 'Massu Engira Masilamani'.
'Manmatha Leelai' is reportedly about the life of a playboy before and after his wedding. The film features Ashok Selvan, Samyukta Hegde, Riya Suman, Smruthi Venkat, and Premgi Amaren in main roles. Premgi Amaren has also scored the music for the film, and for the first time, Venkat Prabhu has made a film with limited stars.
