I'm Tamilian first, says Sathyaraj post 'Baahubali 2' row

Image
After pro-Kannada organisations threatened to stall ' Baahubali  2' in Karnataka, veteran Tamil actor Sathyaraj has apologised over his remarks on the Cauvery water dispute while categorically stating that he would continue to support these issues as he is a Tamilian first and then an actor. While expressing his views via a WhatsApp video, the actor, who expressed his anuish over the Cauvery water issue nine years back, said that he does not want anyone from his upcoming movie 'Baahubali 2' to bear the losses. He noted,"Nevertheless, in the coming days be it Tamil people, Cauvery issue, farmers issue or any other issue, I would continue to voice my support against these issues."

India Budget 2017 Jaitley is under pressure to offer tax giveaways and step up capital and welfare spending Prime Minister Narendra Modi's decision late last year to scrap high-value bank notes has put his finance minister in a bind ahead of the annual Budget next month. Arun Jaitley is under pressure to offer tax giveaways and step up capital and welfare spending to ease the pain from demonetisation, but the economic disruption caused by Modi's jolt has made forecasting next year's revenue outlook a stab in the dark. While indirect tax receipts grew by an annual 14.2 percent in December, a slump in consumer spending along with a contraction in services and manufacturing suggest the outlook is anything but rosy. Adding to his dilemma is a delay in launching a new national Goods and Services Tax that would replace a slew of indirect levies.
