In streak of tax-free movies like \'Chak De India\', \'Rang De Basanti\', \'Taare Zameen Par\' and the latest biopic \'Bhaag Milkha Bhaag\', there\'s political-thriller \'Madras Cafe\', which might join the series. The movie delivers social and political issues, therefore the makers are convincing government to make it tax-free, so that it could reach large masses.

A source close to the movie said that the film \'Madras Cafe\' starring John Abraham and Nargis Fakhri, opens a new chapter of Indian history, the assassination of former Prime Minister, Rajiv Gandhi. Also it makes the statement against violence and terrorism, therefore the film deserves a tax free tag.
