In 1979, former Chief Minister J. Jayalalithaa, then known only as an actor, launched a scathing critique of Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini for his decision to ban all music from the country’s radio and television.
Her critique began with a local issue: the decision of All India Radio (AIR) to ban the song Oram Po, Oram Po Rukumani Vandi Varuthu from the 1979 Tamil film Ponnu Oorukku Pudusu.
