The song ' Karabuu' was called out for glorifying violence against women and promotes criminal acts like stalking and molestation. In the 2021 Kannada film Pogaru, the protagonist (Dhruv) not only stalks the heroine (Rashmika) without her consent, but also touches her, forcefully pulls her, and plants a kiss on her cheek without her permission. To this day, the dialogue is used by real life men while they stalk and harass women. Although she looks disinterested, he continues to sing for her and says, “Aye Bulbul Maathadakilva?” (Aye Bulbul, won’t you talk to me?). A scene from Vishnuvardhan’s 1972 Kannada film Naagarhaavu, shows actor Ambreesh stalking Aarathi. This, in a state where the film industry - like most others across the country - consistently shows stalking and harassment as expressions of love. The group went so far as to seek formal action from the Karnataka Film Chamber of Commerce (KFCC) and warned that if she does not apologise, they will prevent the film from releasing in theatres. Discussions on whether the question by the reporter was relevant to the news story, why Rachita’s male co-star was not approached with the same question, or whose ‘culture’ the Kannada Kranthi Dal collectively claim to represent, were nowhere to be found. Accusing the actor of tarnishing the image of the entire state, they alleged that her statement is against the ‘culture of the land’. There is a reason why I have done the scenes, you will understand it once you watch the scene,” Rachita further said, while still maintaining her calm demeanor.Īnd as is almost to be expected from the moral police, Rachita’s comments soon snowballed into a controversy with the Kannada Kranthi Dal seeking an apology from the actor. I don’t intend to embarrass anyone but what do people do after the wedding? They would be in a romantic relationship, right? We have only shown that on screen. “Among the people present here, many are married. Contemplating the relevance of the question, Rachita questioned the reporter about what he had done on his wedding night. Like many women actors, Rachita, who was tired of being asked the same question in multiple press conferences, explained that she had acted in the scene because the script demanded it. Rachita Ram was attending a press conference on November 9 for her upcoming film Love You Rachchu, when she was questioned about her performance in an intimate scene.
