star. However Rajini stood by his stance
and did not offer an apology. Following
this some groups had said that they would
not screen Rajini’s films in Karnataka
any more.
When Kuselan is ready for release now, people
were skeptical about its screening in Karnataka.
However with the intervention of Karnataka
Film Chamber, the issue has been resolved
amicably and the chamber has given an order
stating that Kuselan will be screened in
13 theatres with ten prints in Bengaluru
alone.
Meanwhile, the president of the Karnataka
Film Chamber of Commerce, actress Jayamala
said that Rajinikanth had sent a hand-written
letter explaining that he had no intention
of hurting the sentiments of Kannadigas.
He reiterated in his letter that people
other than Tamilians also enjoy his films.
