Rajamouli requests Karnataka for Baahubali release

While entire India and the major overseas markets of Indian Cinema are counting days for the arrival of Baahubali 2 - The Conclusion, the scenario in Karnataka state is different as many Kannada organisations are trying to stop the release of Baahubali 2 in Karnataka.

Few organisations even called for a bandh in the state today protesting against Baahubali 2 release.

As you have been reported, Kannada Organisations are serious over comments made by Satyaraj on Kannada people several years ago.Responding on this issue before it would get late, Rajamouli posted a video requesting the Kannada people not to harm Baahubali 2 for Satyaraj.In a summary of what Rajamouli stated, the ace director told that Satyaraj is just another character artist in the film, he is neither a producer or director and has nothing to lose if Kannada people stop Baahubali 2 release.

" We have no connection with the comments of Satyaraj.Its his personal.

We werent even aware of the issue until it was raised on social media.We hope you welcome Baahubali 2 in the same way you people have received the part 1. Rajamouli said in his speech.
