Director Shivadwaj opposes ban on dubbing in Kannada

.....

National award winning director Shivadwaj has now brought up this issue. He thinks that at least the other three languages of Karnataka state- Tulu, Konkani and Kodava, should be allowed to dub in Kannada. His award-winning film, 'Gaggara', has led the director to think about this seriously.

He has sought permission to allow the dubbing of films of these languages in Kannada. This will create a market for these films, which are made with a tiny budget because of their lack of audiences. 'Gaggara' was made with a budget of Rs. 13 lakhs and was shot in 12 days with a 16 mm camera.

Hopefully, his appeal will reach to the industry big shots and something will be done to change the dubbing rule.
