It was shocking news that the title of Valmiki has been changed to Gaddalakonda Ganesh just before its release. The makers of this movie were asked to change the Valmiki title as Boya Valmiki community had filed a case against using Valmiki’s name for a movie title.
After hearing both parties, the court had ordered the movie unit to change the title. The makers announced the change on the eve of its release.
On the other hand, both Ananthapur and Kurnool District authorities have banned Valmiki’s screening, citing law and order concerns following opposition from a community, even after the censor board cleared it for release.
Speaking with the media, Harish Shankar said that the movie does not insult saint Valmiki and he asked the community people to watch the movie to find out. Overall, this title change move came as a shock to many people from the film industry.
