Shivarajkumar set for new role in sandalwood
Tags:
Hinting at a probable real life role as a leader of the troubled Karnataka film industry, actor Shivarajkumar on Tuesday took centre-stage at a programme to honour his father the legendary thespian Rajkumar on his 84th birthday, where he vowed to fight till death to save the Sandalwood industry saying he would never allow outside forces to take it over. Bringing the not inconsiderable weight of his family name to bear on the issue, he said: “Do not misconstrue our family’s silence for weakness.”
Shall fight till death to save Sandalwood: Shivarajkumar
Expressing dissatisfaction over the recent developments in the Kannada film industry and its internal politics, hat-trick hero Shivarajkumar on Tuesday said that he will fight to the death to save the sandalwood industry and will never allow outside forces to take it over. “My my family members have been observing the recent developments of the industry. Our silence should not be read otherwise. I can go to any extent to save the industry. We respect and admire other film industry but they should be kept at a distance when it comes to saving our industry,” he said.
Announcing his arrival and hinting at taking the lead in the politics of the industry, Mr Shivarajkumar had reportedly criticised the statements made by a producer that heroes are given everything except 'condoms.' He had also criticised the action of two producers fighting over the release of their films in front of the electronic media. In respect of dubbing issue, Mr Shivarajkumar had reportedly reacted against it while referring to Aamir Khan's TV show Sathyamev Jayate and had suggested remaking the reality show by making use of local talent. It was Dr Rajkumar’s family that first raised voice against the dubbing and ever since the demise of the idol, some forces are trying hard to bring back the dubbing culture.

ever body has the right to get the entertainment in thier own language, Rajkumar Family should not think that Karnatka is thier personal property.
My showing muscle power they can avoid dubbing industry.
If we come to Century Star, Hatric hero etc (Self declared adjectives)Shivraj kumar part, fist thing, he should learn action before going to any movement.
Now people were awaken and fed up with Century star Shivrajkumar acting or sandalwood heros acting, slowly many people started depending on other industry for entertainment.
Rajkumar family and his group like Sa ra govindu were successly prevented the dubbing for 50 years by using muscle power.
enough! no more should be allowed kannada people.
Dubbing is necessary for cultural exchange, for national integration, multiple choice for consumer for entertainment, and people will in ttouch with their mother tongue.
