Kollywood If the allegation turns out to be true, then the makers of 'Eswaran' and its lead star can be booked under the Wildlife Protection Act.Digital NativeThe first look motion poster of the upcoming Simbu starrer Eswaran grabbed the attention of the movie buffs as his new-look after shedding weight turned heads. However, not all were happy with the poster. An activist has complained that Str is holding a real cobra in the poster, which is against the law. The law forbids using animals in movies as they are most likely to be drugged or defanged. An ex-member of the Performing Animals Sub-committee, the complainant has also lodged complaints with the forest department and the Animal Welfare Board of India (Awbi). If the allegation turns out to be true, then the makers of Eswaran and its lead star can be booked under the Wildlife Protection Act, which would mean serious trouble for the film.

So the whole thing started with a mashup song created by Twitter user Yashraj Mukhate (@YBMukhate). Yashraj set a scene from the serial to...
