The Enforcement Directorate (ED) is focusing on money trail to Hindi-Telugu movie 'Liger' in the wake of suspected violations of Foreign Exchange Management Act (FEMA).

The ED officials grilled film director Puri Jagannadh and actor-turned-producer Charmme Kaur throughout the day on Thursday.

They were questioned about the source of investment into Vijay Deverakonda-starrer 'Liger' which was released in August.

American boxer Mike Tyson also played an extended cameo in the movie reported to have been produced with a budget of about Rs 125 crore.

The film starring Vijaya Deverakonda and Ananya Panday in the lead had mega shoots in Las Vegas. It, however, bombed at the box-office.

The ED took up the investigation after Congress leader Bakka Judson lodged a complaint about the investment into the movie through dubious routes.
