While Twitter is abuzz with Dear Comrade review having mixed views, there’s a section which is trending #StopTeluguImposition. Wondering what is it all about? The so-called hashtags is apparently trended by Kannadigas who are upset with the fact that Dear Comrade despite being dubbed in Kannada has been released in Telugu. This has hurt the sentiments of Kannadigas leaving netizens divided.
A section of netizens have come in support of Dear Comrade asking them to look at the market than being biased. Check out the tweets on StopTeluguImposition:
A movie is being used by language fanatics supporting this ‘#StopTeluguImposition‘ to create rift between twins (Kannada & Telugu). A small example of how much degraded we are as a society. Can’t these fanatics understand simple economics? It’s called market demand, period!

Davanagere has 3 shows Telugu and 1 Kannada!
What pathetic business stratdgy is this? Distributors aren’t bothered about more profits?
Why haven’t they thought abt providing content in Kannada in a city like Davanagere?Or is it by plan?#BoycottDearComrade #StopTeluguImposition pic.twitter.com/q9jDD1ZV5Y

23 shows of Dear comrade in Telugu compared to zero shows of Kannada in Mysuru, cultural capital of Karnataka. Why the hell they even dubbed the movie to Kannada? #StopTeluguImposition #boycottdearcomrade

#StopTeluguImposition I suspect this trending is meant to divert the attention of KTK ppl from the ongoing political turmoil in the state. The best thing for politicos when they are quarreling among themselves 4 power is to have the public fighting among themselves over a movie.
