Rajinikanth

Karnataka film distributors and exhibitors have decided not to screen Rajinikanth-starrer "Kaala" in theatres across the state to protest the superstar's stand on the Cauvery river water row with Tamil Nadu, said a Kannada film industry official on Tuesday. "In view of the public outrage over Rajinikanth's recent remarks on the setting up of a Cauvery Management Board, distributors and exhibitors have decided not to screen any version his movie 'Kaala' in any theatre in the state, and we welcome it," Karnataka Film Chamber of Commerce (KFCC) President Sa Ra Govindu told IANS here.
