Sir i respect what you say. I have seen him since the time he came to NCA for u15. He used to be the same even during that time. Few people are quiet and they won’t express things on field. Few people express themselves aggressively. What he is on field is a straight opposite character off the field. I was so close to him during NCA days and during my stint with RCB for 6 years. The moment i started working with SA , he was not the same with me because i was on the other side of him. That’s Kohli for you. All he wants is no matter what who you are , he will come hard at you , if you are his opposition. But there is a lovely character in him off the field. He is an undisputed legend. Please don’t judge him because of his aggressive nature on field.

Pdogg - last year after winning the playoffs with CSK.. remember the gesture he made at the section where CSK fans were sitting? I understand Kohlis passion and on the ground he’s a different animal.. am a big fan of his game but sometimes he needs to tone down a bit.. aggression is good but mindless aggression for nothing.. well that’s debatable…

If you love sport and the atmosphere that it brings, you HAVE TO, once in your life, come to this venue and watch an IPL game. It doesn’t get better anywhere in the world.

This is an absolute lie. I’m from UK, speak ನಮ್ಮ ಉತ್ತರ ಕರ್ನಾಟಕ slang proudly, built a career in Bengaluru, own property, and have friends across OMR. My dad too worked in Bengaluru, spoke pure UK slang and was respected in his bank and community. Both of us are married to pure Bengaluru woman 🤩 Some random jokers with another set of random jokers don’t define UK or OMR. The promoters of this are nothing but political ideology slaves trying to divide Karnataka with fake narratives. And let’s be clear – one lady’s claimed “experience” is not universal. Even in her own story, Rapido drivers only advised her to be careful – what’s wrong in that? Most Rapido and cab drivers here are from our UK, and people who actually live here know they are kind, respectful and helpful. Dragging in a #BigBossKannada reference only exposes this as a cheap TRP stunt to get famous, not a genuine issue. UK, OMR or Karavali we are united ✌️ #KarnatakaOndhe

Stop sucking those piece of trashes Have pride in ur language
Okay, hear me out.. Because of the small group of people who constantly criticise other languages and cultures, the kannadigaru as a whole may be at the risk of being unfairly perceived as intolerant by outsiders.

My friends @Karthik1423 & @yogigraj they don’t just produce cinema. They breathe it. They live it. They bleed for it. They even Fight for it 😄 I’ve seen their journey up close and I just want this one thing. Let them win massively. Because when good producers win, more good cinema happens. And with @PRK_Productions & @JayannaFilms standing shoulder to shoulder, this isn’t just a movie it’s a mega mass revolutionary movement 🙌 And then comes the masterstroke - Director @RohitPadaki native sharp craft, commercial instinct. @yuva_rajkumar a fresh mass face with a grounded presence. KFI needs new age Superstars. We often say: "KFI lacks producers with vision" "KFI lacks new-age directors" "KFI lacks fresh heroes" #EKKA answers all of that \m/ So today, don’t just go watch a film. Go support a blueprint. A model of collaboration, courage, and calculated cinema. Because when the right people win, the industry doesn’t just grow it evolves. As someone who is always admired the class, craft and clarity of @NimmaShivanna, I naturally gravitate toward cinema that not only respects the audience’s time and intelligence but also producers money. EKKA feels like that kind of cinema. #Ekka #KFI

#Rapido case - New CCTV footage shows the Rapido customer hitting the Rapido rider/captain twice before he retaliates. The customer had claimed that she was assaulted by the rider for questioning rash driving.

Respectfully disagree. The difference in how Kannadigas and Teluguites assert their linguistic identity stems from culture, history, politics, demography, and urban pressure. Kannada has deep roots in native philosophical movements like the Dasa movement, Veerashaivism, and Vachana Sahitya led by Basavanna. These were composed in Kannada for the common people, not in Sanskrit for elites. Kannada boasts an unbroken literary tradition of over 2,500 years, whereas Telugu's literary prominence emerged later, gaining momentum only during the Eastern Chalukya and Kakatiya periods. The unification of Karnataka in 1956, Ekikarana movement was fought purely on linguistic lines, uniting scattered Kannada speaking regions across 4 states. In contrast, the creation of Andhra State was driven more by Telugu–Tamil power dynamics within the Madras Presidency, not a grassroots linguistic identity movement. In essence, Kannada to a Kannadiga is what caste is to a Teluguite, a core identity marker, fiercely defended when threatened.
Amidst the language controversies in the states of Tamil Nadu and Karnataka, it is indeed a pleasant irony that my two Telugu states of AP & Telangana, which first agitated for linguistic reorganization of states, have never stoked any kind of linguistic chauvinism. #LanguageRow

If two Hindus fight, the Hindutva supporters will take the side of the Hindi speaker. If two Hindi-speaking Hindus fight, they will take the side of the upper caste. If two Hindus of the same caste fight, they will support the richest. That's Hindutva 101 for you.

Mocking Karnataka, Kannadigas, and the Kannada language has almost become a trend. One anti Kannada tweet, one meme, one slur and suddenly, you’re viral. People love that. You feed a whole nation, brain dead community waiting to pounce, always hungry to ridicule and feel better. Framing every issue as a language problem and portraying Kannada and the Kannada speaking community as the oppressors seems to be the new trend. Real regional issues? Real linguistic struggles? Ignored. But when it benefits you, suddenly it’s a ‘language problem.’ It’s not random anymore, feels like a deliberate pattern. A slow, systematic attempt to drown out Kannada’s voice and amplify the anti Kannada echo.

This is for all those who are saying biker guy attacked first. You can clearly see Shiladitya attacked first which made biker retaliate. Even his wife was shocked by his behaviour. #ArrestShiladityaBose #Drdo #kannada #Kannadigas #CCTV

What a scary video. A DRDO officer it seems. Literally trying to kill the other guy. No matter who is at fault, such brutal assaults are dangerous. Is he trying to murder the other guy? Request @BlrCityPolice to investigate and arrest this officer. He seems to be a rowdy !
