		While fans might have been driven to rioting because of grief and poor funeral arrangements for their hero - southern Indian fans are known for their adulation of film stars; some have even torched themselves on the death of their heroes - there are other more complex issues at work behind last week's violence.
		Kannadigas feel that Kannada identity is being diluted with the influx of outsiders, that Kannada culture is declining because other cultures are gaining ground here.
		What has deepened the sense of insecurity among Kannadigas is that economically too they are on the sidelines, having to watch the outsiders prosper the most from Bangalore's economic boom.

	DR RAJ KUMAR: 1930-2006 « churumuri
		I was a moderate Kannadiga till I migrated to Bangalore.
		For a true Kannadiga Dr Raj roles are a role model for their life be the role of Bangarada Manushya, Kasturi Nivasa, Jeevana Chaitra or movies like Baktha Kumbhara, Mantralaya Mahatme etc. The treasure he has left can never be matched with money as personality like Dr Raj are beyond the reach of materialistic money.
		Kannadigas think highly of themselves because of this rajkumar and no wonder bangalore is in such a pathetic state today.

		That might seem like a lot, but Karnataka alone had 6.1 million tourists, making Kannadigas, by far, the most travelled people in the country.

		At least we Kannadigas have a chance to do a comparison between 4/5 language movies and can say which are good and which are bad.
		Kannadiga’s attitude has to change and at the same time producers should change their marketing/distributing techniques to reach more Kannadigas and to make Kannada movies more popular.

		In fact, the earliest kannaDa inscription talks of KannaDigas of being "paradharma sahishNutaru"(tolerant towards others).Karnataka is a place where many religions and hindu revivalist movements have grown.
		I would also take this context to remind that this quality of kannada and kannaDigas which made many like masti venkatesha iyengar (gnanapeeth awardee), AK Ramanujam [Tamil], Govinda Pai,Girish Karnad [Konkani] and many others to adopt kannada to do their literary work over their mother tongues.

	The Death of Imran Kissme at Random Thoughts of a Demented Mind (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Hi Debolin - I am particularly sorry to see that you feel that Kannadigas are ill-mannered, regionally biased, hostile, etc, because the very reason that Bangalore attracted hordes of people in the first place, was because of the weather, and the very hospitable local population.
		Rajkumar, as many observed, is a veritable embodiment of the Kannada spirit, a man loved and almost deified by the Kannadigas for his socio-political crusades (including the language issue, immigrant issue) and spotless personal life.
		Now I see that this discussion has taken a different course on wheather Kannadigas are good or bad, that age old north south thing and most importantly if pointing fingers at Bengal after all these smacks of double standards or not (A point not missed by the ever-alert Yourfan).
