'Sorry Siddharth': Prakash Raj Apologises For Disruption Of Chithha Actor's Press Conference
Prakash Raj Apologizes For Siddharth's Press Meet Disruption: Actor Prakash Raj extended an apology to actor Siddharth, conveying regrets on behalf of the people of Karnataka, following the interruption of the latter's press conference in Bengaluru by a pro-Kannada organisation.
Siddharth arrived in Bengaluru to promote his film 'Chithha,' also known as 'Chikku' in Kannada. As he was on the verge of commencing his speech during the press conference, individuals from a pro-Kannada organisation forcefully entered and called for an immediate halt to the event. Despite these disruptions, Siddharth decided to proceed, addressing the media and officially initiating the press conference.
Nevertheless, the scenario intensified when the activists insisted that the press conference be stopped immediately. They pointed out the timing of the event and criticised it for not actively advocating for the Cauvery water dispute, expressing their belief that addressing this issue should have taken precedence over conducting a press conference.
Confronted with their continuous disruption, Siddharth expressed his gratitude to the audience with folded hands and gracefully exited the event.
Apology Amid Chaos
Responding to the occurrence, Prakash Raj conveyed in a message on his X account (formerly known as Twitter), "Instead of questioning all the political parties and its leaders for failing to solve this decades old issue.. instead of questioning the useless parliamentarians who are not pressurising the centre to intervene.. Troubling the common man and Artists like this can not be accepted.. as a Kannadiga .. on behalf of Kannadigas. 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿 sorry #Siddharth #justasking"
In Karnataka, protests have erupted due to the distribution of Cauvery water to Tamil Nadu. These protests come in response to the Supreme Court's recent decision not to intervene in the enforcement of water-sharing agreements between the states, as well as the rulings of the Cauvery Water Management Authority and Cauvery Water Regulation Committee.
The Cauvery water dispute is a persistent issue that has frequently generated tensions between the states of Karnataka and Tamil Nadu.
