Raj B. Shetty's Language Issue Plea... Do You Even Know What Kannadigas Desire?

Fans are expressing frustration because the Kannada version of the Malayalam film Lokah: Chapter 1 - Chandra is yet to be released. While Tamil and Hindi versions are available, Kannadigas haven't had the chance to watch the film in their own language.

After the massive success of Raj B. Shetty's Garuda Gamana Vrishabha Vahana, he has been busy with his new film projects. However, failing to fulfill a long-standing demand of Kannadigas has caused dissatisfaction among his fans. Questions about this are flooding social media.

Following its popularity in Kannada, Garuda Gamana Vrishabha Vahana was dubbed into Malayalam and released there too. Malayalam audiences got to watch it in their native language.

However, Lokah, a Malayalam film produced by Dulquer Salmaan, is being distributed in Karnataka by Raj's Lighter Buddha company. Even two weeks after its release, it hasn't hit screens in Kannada. This has disappointed many fans.

For a film to be fully understood, language is extremely important. Fans say watching it in Malayalam doesn't provide the complete experience. Therefore, they are questioning when the Kannada version of Lokah will be released.

Strangely, the film's Tamil and Hindi versions are available in Bengaluru. But Kannadigas alone are denied the opportunity to watch the movie in their language. Many have expressed their dissatisfaction over this.

The film Lokah: Chapter 1 - Chandra has already received excellent response from audiences and become a super hit. It has also gotten plenty of screenings in Bengaluru. There was a controversy earlier regarding the language used in the film, after which Dulquer apologized.
