Agni Sridhar declared at the third film of Megha Movies ÂKallara Santhe that he will take up any challenge in his directorial venture starring Shivarajakumar. Today he has won all the battles that came to ÂThamassuÂ. Whether he is going to win the box office battle, time will answer this question.
Odhu Gowder and Mr Rockline Venkatesh had a meeting for four hours in Hubli on Thursday and arrived at an amicable solution. With that all the problems related to Hyderabad Karnataka exhibitors would be solved. One of the demands is that Kannada films are not given for release.
Only Bangalore exhibitors are taken note but other areas exhibitors are left careless is the point stressed by Mr Odhu Gowder.
The Karnataka state exhibitors Mahamandala has given time till July for Apex Body KFCC to solve the issue. It is learnt that the next month meeting of KFCC would be held in Hubli.
