Immediately publicise ban on Plaster of Paris idols, NGT tells TNPCB
The southern bench of the National Green Tribunal has criticised the Tamil Nadu Pollution Control Board for failing to publicise awareness campaigns on the guidelines for using eco-friendly idols. The bench, comprising Justice Pushpa Sathyanarayana and expert member Satyagopal Korlapati, said the Board was taking a 'backseat' in enforcing environmental regulations and also urged it to clearly specify penalties for those who violate the rules by immersing Plaster of Paris (PoP) idols in waterbodies. In its order passed January 24, 2024, the bench directed a committee to meet at least six months before Vinayagar Chaturthi each year to ensure proper planning, including the creation of artificial tanks, early notification of waterbodies, and prevention of PoP idol manufacture. When the case came up for compliance reporting on Tuesday, the bench questioned whether any posters had been displayed outlining the do's and don'ts to prevent the manufacture of idols made from PoP and other harmful materials. With a little over two months to go for the festival, the bench also asked if steps had been taken to restrict the entry of such idols from neighbouring States. In response, the counsel representing the Tamil Nadu Pollution Control Board TNPCB requested additional time to submit a report. The bench stressed that festivals should not contribute to environmental degradation. The bench suggested that makeshift waterbodies could be created where feasible, and a fee should be imposed for idol immersion. 'Let people immerse idols in a bucket of water, their own wells (if water is available), or in temporary waterbodies,' the bench recommended. It directed the TNPCB to submit an action-taken report by June 30, and to raise public awareness by publishing the do's and don'ts in newspapers. The Board was also instructed to announce penalties for violators.

Official! Keerthy Suresh's 'Revolver Rita' locks release date; aims THIS festival in August
The much-awaited release date of Keerthy Suresh 's next film 'Revolver Rita' has been announced. The film is set to hit theaters on 27 August, aligning with the celebration of Vinayagar Chaturthi. This official confirmation has encouraged the fans, who have been waiting for the update since the film's teaser, which was unveiled on Keerthy Suresh's birthday. With the prescribed release during a major festival, producers are expecting to attract large family audiences to theaters. Anticipated for Keerthy Suresh's strong comeback 'Revolver Rita' is an important film in Keerthy Suresh's career, especially after the lackluster reception her recent films have received. Her last Tamil outing, 'Raghu Thatha', was released in 2024, but failed to leave an impression at the box office. She then played the lead role in 'Baby John,' which was the Hindi remake of Vijay's 'Theri', which did not perform as expected. Despite the failures, Keerthy Suresh continues to work in diverse roles, and 'Revolver Rita' is expected to be shown in a bold and dynamic avatar. Stellar cast and crew raise expectations Directed by JK Chandru, who first helmed 'Naveena Saraswati Sabadham', 'Revolver Rita' boasts a unique story and an ensemble cast. Along with Keerthy Suresh, the film also stars Sunil, Ajay Ghosh, John Vijay , Redin Kingsley, Suresh Chakravarthy, and Blade Shankar . The technical team consists of cinematography by Dinesh Krishnan and music composed by Sean Roldan, as both bring a rich creative value to the project. Teaser generated great buzz After wrapping her shooting in 2024, 'Revolver Rita' has been in post-production for several months. The teaser indicated a bizarre, action-packed story, where Keerthy Suresh is playing a powerful, possibly eccentric character with Suresh. Now with its dramatic release, 'Revolver Rita' aims to offer a fresh cinematic experience to the audience.
