In a recent conversation with Just Curious India, the veteran actor revealed that he was subjected to unprofessional treatment after refusing to lower his remuneration for a film. Prakash shared that he would not act under their banner even if they offered him Rs 10 lakh per day. “Because I wouldn’t bend on my rate, but the director wanted me to, they didn’t pay me the final chunk of money. On the last day of the shoot, they sent people to my vanity van.

Four of them ate, threw meat everywhere, emptied the water, and defecated. It was very hot, and I had to sit outside because it was so stinky,” he revealed.Prakash Belawadi about the cultured part of SandalwoodPrakash acknowledged that not everyone in the Kannada film industry behaves in such an ‘extreme’ manner and shared how he is pampered in other industries. “There’s no contract in a Kannada film—really backward and uncivilised.

If you’re a civilised person, your word should be enough. There was a time when Kannada was like that because it’s a civilised culture. Most of the producers (who behave like this) aren’t Kannadigas.

If you work with the Rajkumar family, that’s different—they’re very cultured,” he added.Prakash Belawadi's work frontPrakash Belawadi made his directorial debut with the award-winning English film Stumble in 2003. He was recently seen in Naga Chaitanya's 'Thandel.'
