Initially, Film Institute was planned to come up in Mysuru, but it didn’t become a reality, with the Government not allotting the land. Similarly, with the denial of land by the Government near KRS, Film Sound and Negative Processing Institute went to Ooty. Children’s Film Institute earlier planned in Mysuru went Hyderabad way. It is all due to the self- centric stand of politicians that, the art in Karnataka is facing a pathetic situation. —S.V. Rajendra Singh Babu, Film Director
