Family ke saath baithke TV on karna dushvar ho gaya hai toh iska bhi mujhe lagta hai Bollywood pe lagaam lagaani padegi. (Bollywood has crossed all limits with vulgarity, tactics and attention seeking. The whole country is condemning and reprimanding it. But I don’t think they have any shame… There should be more strictness in showing such vulgarity and obscenity… I think Bollywood should be strictly regulated…)”Directed by Prem, KD: The Devil is a Kannada period action film set in 1970s Bengaluru.
