Demand for Rajni's apology
Tuesday 8 April 2008

Following Tamil superstar Rajnikant's recent remarks on Kannadigas over the Hogenakkal water row, prominent personalities from Karnataka has demanded for an apology from the actor.

Rajni who spoke for Tamils even went ahead with a hunger strike giving strong open remarks against the Karnataka politicians in a public rally on April 4th. Later Rajni tried to make it clear that what he targetted was those trying to disturb the harmony between Kanndigas and Tamilians.

However his statment had drawn criticism from pro Kannada activists and other sections including those from the film industry who were on the stance that Rajni who himself hails from Karnatka should not have made such provocative remarks.
