In the 10 episodes of telecast of ‘Brahmin Café’ in Siri Kannada channel it has kicked up a row on the existence of God or not. The two angles of theist and atheist are focused and the 7th episode especially struck with an argument in a temple between Vinayaka Pandit character Srinath Vasishta and Megnana Shenoy both walking down the stairs of the temple. In the later episode a Brahmin Vinayak Pandit character opening the delivery of food and finding a chicken piece – this delivery is made by Meghana Shenoy character, a food delivery girl – further put the situation very piquant. This is a wrong delivery of food and explanation is given in later stages.

These two incidents within the 10th episode of ‘Brahmin Café’ have resulted in a lot of hit backs. The email, SMS, whats app groups, personal phone of director Sanjeev Tagadur getting a lot of disturbing messages made the team of ‘Brahmin Café’ team address the media on Saturday evening at Renukamba Digital Theater auditorium.

We are not passing any judgment; we are not against any religion and community. We have given sufficient explanations also in the episodes. Even after that we are receiving wrongly worded messages. This has reached the level of going to court. The people up in arms should know that this is democratic society and opinions differ. We are not here to hurt anyone at any point of time, says Sanjeev Tagadur, director of ‘Brahmin Café’. I have been in the industry for the last 25 years and have enough of ‘Parignana’ added the director. We at Siri Kannada not for bringing disrespect to any religion or community. We are doing right scrutiny with the team and then approving for telecast.

The Brahmin Café has obtained 7 points in TRP and at 9.30 pm slot among all TV channels programs this is at the 5th place. Srinath Vasishta also strongly said the purpose is different and we are taking a stand on anyone. We are giving correct versions – in fact what we see in the society we live in. I was coming out of a temple recently when a group of viewers of ‘Brahmin Café’ appreciated the television serial. It is only a few who are creating trouble and creating chaos. We should know that Brahmin Café is gaining popularity from all such controversies.

The team members Jagadish Malnad, Madhusudhan Reddy (he is in separate track), Meghana Shenoy (Kamath group owner daughter – she was eager to take up this for the title as it connects her family profession) dialogue writer Prasanna and a few others of Brahmin Café expressed their opinions.

Selvam and Gayathri Selvam, producers of Brahmin Café, claimed that we are here to give a fine environment around us.
