Joju George Unpaid for 'Churuli' Role, Claims Film's Controversy
In the Malayalam movie 'Churuli,' actor Joju George says he didn't get any money for his work.
He played a police officer in the film.
The actor says the filmmakers promised to only show a version without bad language in theaters, but they released the version with the strong language anyway, without telling him.
Now, he's facing legal trouble because of the words used in the movie.
The court is also looking at the film's language because it might break rules about what's okay to show.
Actor Joju George says he wasn't paid for his role in the film 'Churuli'.
He claims he wasn't informed about the theatrical release of the version with abusive language.
George states that the explicit version was meant for awards screenings only.
A case has been filed against George due to the film's language.
The Kerala High Court scrutinized 'Churuli' over its language.
