Kannadigas
around
the
world
are
celebrating
the
formation
of
Karnataka
today,
as
the
state
observes
Kannada
Rajyotsava
2020.
The
special
day
marks
the
merging
of
Kannada-speaking
regions
of
South
India
in
1956.
However,
the
state
was
later
renamed
from
Mysore
to
'Karnataka'
on
November
1,
1973.
The
Rajyotsava
day
is
listed
as
a
government
holiday
in
the
state
of
Karnataka.
Like
every
year,
the
Kannada
film
industry
took
to
social
media
to
wish
fans
a
very
happy
Rajyotsava
day.
Challenging
star
Darshan
took
to
his
Instagram
account
and
wrote,
“Be
wherever,
be
however,
but
always
be
Kannada.
Kannada
is
the
truth,
Kannada
is
everlasting.
To
all
the
inhabitants
of
the
Karnataka
state,
wish
you
a
very
happy
Kannada
Rajyotsava
day.
Yours,
Darshan.”
Prakash
Raj
tweeted,
“My
language,
my
voice,
my
income

This
is
our
festival,
all
of
us
should
celebrate
together.
