Tulu film on 'Bhootaradhane' to hit screens on Mar 25

March 22, 2011

Mangalore, March 22: Tulu film 'Kanchilda Bale' produced by Kalabhairava Creations Bangalore is all set to release on March 25 at Puttur Mayoora theatre, Prabhath Mangalore and Kalpana theatre Udupi simultaneously.



Announcing this to media persons at Press Club here on Tuesday, Kumbra Raghunath Rai, Director and Producer of the film, said that 'Kanchilda Bale' is a film that examines the tradition of 'Bhootharadhane' in the context of conflict between two different generations.




Muttappa Rai, Founder of Jai Karnataka Kannada Association, his wife Rekha Rai and former Puthur MLA Shakunthala, have made guest appearances in the film, he said.




At the centre of the plot are members of a family who believe that they are descendents of a dynasty that ruled Tulunadu. All the women in the family have had only one daughter and therefore she becomes the sole owner of the property of the family ensuring that all of it remains within the family without getting divided. The family believes that the 'Bhootas' (deities) are responsible for perpetuating this state of things.



It is in this backdrop that a small child who can claim a share of the family property arrives from California, US, with her parents for the 'Bhootakola'.




Charithra Hegde, Kusalda Arase fame Navin D Padil, Aravinda Bolar, Saikrishna have essayed main roles in the film.




Director Kumbra Raghunath Rai had worked for the film 'Maaribale' 14 years ago which secured the best regional film award.



Sai Prakash, Navin D Padil and others were present at the press meet.

Mangaluru, Feb 25: Notorious gangster Ravi Poojary,

who has been extradited to India from Senegal, has 34 cases registered against him within the city police commissionerate.

Now in Bengaluru police custody for interrogation in connection with several cases there, Poojary faces cases relating to murder, murder attempt, extortion and threat calls in the city, police sources said.

Sources said the city police are trying to get Pujari for interrogation though it would take a while as the court has allowed Bengaluru police to keep him in custody for questioning and evidence taking for 15 days.

Most of the cases in the city against him, 28 of them, are in connection with threat calls.

He had allegedly made threat calls in 2015 to the then state ministers B Ramanath Rai and Abhayachandra Jain, demanding immediate arrest of the accused in the murder of Bajrang Dal worker Prashanth Poojary.

All the cases against Poojary in the city were registered between 2007 and 2018.

Cases involving murder, death threats and shootouts are among the cases to be investigated, the sources said.

A total of 28 cases of death threat calls, one of murder, three of shootouts, one of abduction and a case of funding his associates lodged in prison are the crimes being probed by the city police.

The cases are now pending in courts at different stages of trial.

Cases of making threat calls to businessmen using his associates demanding protection money have been registered at Moodbidri, Kavoor, Kadri, Konaje, Barke and Urwa police stations.

Some of his associates were imprisoned in 2012 in connection with threat calls to a businessman from Kinnigoli.

The case relating to providing them money while in prison was also registered in the same year.

Pujari, wanted in many cases including extortion and murder in different parts of the country, including Karnataka and who had been on the run for over 15 years, was deported to Senegal following his arrest and later extradited

He had jumped bail in Senegal last year after being arrested there.
