Actor Ileana D’Cruz, who started her film career with the Telugu film Devadasu, has been grabbing headlines for being banned from the Tamil film industry. However, as per the latest reports, the Tamil Film Producers Council (TFPC) has called these reports absolutely false.

There were rumours that Kollywood has banned the Main Tera Hero actor from working in the South film industry after she refused to shoot a Tamil film after taking a hefty amount in advance. Reportedly, the producer incurred huge losses and subsequently, he filed a complaint with TFPC.

Post that complaint, Tamil film producers had apparently decided not to sign her on for any Tamil movies. Calling these reports false and baseless, TFPC said no such ban had been put in place by them.

The speculations of Ileana’s ban from the South film industry could have risen because of her absence from Tamil and Telugu cinema for a long time. She was last seen as a lead in Tamil and Telugu films a decade ago in 2012 in Nanban and Julayi respectively.

In the same year, she debuted in the Bollywood industry with Anurag Basu’s Barfi, also starring Ranbir Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra. However, the Raid actor has been seen in a minor role in the 2018 Telugu film Amar Akbar Anthony.

On the professional front, Ileana will be next seen in Balwinder Singh Janjua’s film Tera Kya Hoga Lovely opposite Randeep Hooda. She will also be seen in Shirsha Guha’s film.

Luv Ranjan’s much-awaited film Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar was released in theatres on March 8 and the film is getting mostly great, and a few average reviews on social media. After five years of Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety, fans are impressed with Ranjan’s innovative take on love, with a refreshing storyline.

The cinema buffs were eagerly waiting for Ranbir and Shraddha’s fresh pairing, and are satisfied with their on-screen chemistry.

Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar is said to have a slower starting but becomes more comic and engaging by the interval. The critics are hailing Ranbir Kapoor, who is said to be in his best acting form and is carrying most of the scenes in the film.

While Shraddha Kapoor is getting appreciated a lot for her dance, fans feel that her character could have been constructed better and her acting did not do justice to her co-actor.

A critic also wrote, Go give this film a shot in the theatres because you will have ample laughs, moments that make you emotional and of course, the film does have everything that a mass entertainer must have.
