I am okay with Sandalwood's downfall and it is deserved.
Hear me out, the Kannada movie industry might be the source of livelihood for lakhs of people but at the top, it is filled with vile and shitty people.
I recently watched the rapid Rashmi podcast, "Just Curious" and the guest was Dharma Keerthiraj, I am a great fan of Rashmi and have suggested people listen to Rashmi's podcast even on Reddit but man do they not care about people.
So here is the issue, they were discussing Darshan and him being accused of murder, the whole talk was about Darshan not being guilty, and the whole conversation was centred around Darshan being able to return to his normal life and continuing to make movies. They never blame Darshan for his actions the whole conversation was about "Bad Time", "People around him", "Actions of people around him", etc. There is no self-reflection or talk about the victim or his family that has been affected by Darshan. I know Darshan is not declared Guilty but they didn't even have an ounce of empathy about the victim.
Also, this is not the first time Darshan has been accused of Violence. Verbal, physical and mental violence against his wife, physical violence against servers, etc, his stories of being a violent/grumpy man have no end.
When people don't care about the victim but try to remove blame from the accused it boils my blood that such people benefit from moviegoers.
Edit: I am advocating for people losing their jobs but seems like divine justice that an industry supporting vile men suffers and at the end of the day I want to see the industry grow and make better movies.
