We have a saying in Kannada ‘Shankadinda Bandarene Thirtha’. It seems the time has come to tame the Kannada film producers who keep English titles for their films. This is what practiced in Tamil Nadu for Tamil films. Only Tamil title for Tamil films.

On Wednesday night Kannada Development Board Chairman, actor and politician lashed at the producers who come with English title to Kannada films.

In the days of a language ending within 15 days it is high time we show complete interest to it. I am writing to Karnataka chief minister and information department on cancelling all facilities for Kannada films that are with English titles. It will be taken up seriously stated Chandru fiercely at the audio release of ‘Govindayanamaha’ at Gold Finch Hotel.

Why producers with English titles of Kannada cinema should be given facility. Out of 6000 languages in world only 90 have ‘Lipi’. 2500 languages are in India and slowly losing its identity. It should not happen for Kannada cinema. It is from the film media the fascination to language is possible to spread stated Mukyamantri Chandru.

It is difficult to give birth to a language but easy to kill it. Let it not happen like that felt Chandru. Here afterwards no English title for Kannada films he pointed the industry friends. At the same time everything should not be for money. A producer and director should be careful in his approach he suggested.

Chandru has ten other relevant points concerning the KFI. He would take up one by one.
