Members of the Tamil community staged a protest outside Bollywood actor Amitabh Bachchan's residence in Mumbai on Tuesday, against his proposed visit to Sri Lanka in June.
Bachchan is due to attend the 11th International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) awards ceremony in Colombo from June 3-5.
Members of the Naam Tamilar party went on a hunger strike outside Bachchan's residence, and expressed their anger over the killings of Sri Lankan Tamils last year.
They demanded a change in the venue of the awards to be changed.
"The International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) 2010 awards ceremony is scheduled to be held in Sri Lanka. We are going on a hunger strike and our demand is that IIFA awards should not be held in Sri Lanka. We came here earlier, had a meeting with the IIFA officials and discussed the issue," said C Rajendran, General Secretary, Naam Tamilar Party.
