Madras high court stays release of Shankar's 'I'

'I', directed by Shankar, featuring Vikram and Amy Jackson, was scheduled for release on the Pongal day, January 15. But the Madras high court on thursday stayed the release of this big budget film. Justice R Mahadevan ordered the interim injunction till January 30, 2015 from releasing the movie in theatres all over the country, and in any country outside India.

The application was filed by Picturehouse Media Limited, claiming non-performance of commercial and financial agreements between it and Aascar Films. Justice Mahadevan also asked the parties to settle the issue by arbitration during the stay period.
