Rabble Rousing Random Ramblings

September 14, 2004

The decision of the Kannada film producers lobby and the Karnataka government to continue with the ban on non-Kannada movies is part of their continued efforts to force people to watch crappy Kannada movies. Those who dont know Kannada shouldnt live in Karnataka, presumably that is their campaign - modelled on the Shiv Sena's "Mumbai for Mumbaikars" 25 year old movement. Ramachandra Guha touches upon this issue briefly in his contribution in last Sunday's magazine supplement of 'The Hindu'.
