The much-anticipated release of KGF Chapter 2 is sweeping across the country and has received a terrific reaction from the fans. The Prashanth Neel directorial and Yash starer has sparked curiosity among the crowd, breaking box office records ever since its release on 14 April.

Interestingly, the editor of this movie is a teen named Ujjwal Kulkarni, with hardly any experience in the field.

The 19-year-old’s hidden talent was unraveled through the short films and fan-made movies on YouTube, which grabbed the attention of director Prashant Neel.

News 18 reported that Ujjwal had made a trailer out of the sequences shot by Prashant Neel’s team earlier, which left Neel in awe of the teenager’s talent, after which he reportedly gave Ujjwal the responsibility of editing the entire film.

The film received great admiration and hype for its technicality, the core of which relies on its editing skills. The fact that the man behind this is a 19-year-old has left the fans flabbergasted.

The film which is produced under the company Hombale films is produced by Vijay Kiragandur.

The film also features Sanjay Dutt, Prakash Raj, Srinidhi Shetty, and Raveena Tandon along with Yash.

New Delhi: The Union Ministry of Culture allegedly spent Rs 76.13 lakh on print advertisements marking the 100-year celebrations of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), according to a Right to Information (RTI) reply.

The information was sought by RTI activist Ajay Basudev Bose, who filed an application seeking details on expenditure incurred by the ministry for advertisements commemorating the RSS centenary.

Bose shared a picture of the reply from the ministry on his official ‘X’ handle.

“It is informed that an amount of Rs 76,13,129 has been spent on advertisement given in various print media by the Ministry of Culture on the occasion of the completion of 100 years of RSS,” the government’s reply stated.

Bose questioned the expenditure in the post X, “when Everyone knows RSS is Not Registered & Does not Pay any Tax is it justified to spend Tax Payers Money on such Private event??”

Reacting to the development, Karnataka’s IT-BT and Panchayat Raj Minister Priyank Kharge also criticised the spending.

In a post on X, he asked why public money was being used for what he described as a “private ideological project.”

"Modi Sarkar spent Rs 76,13,129 of public money on newspaper advertisements to celebrate 100 years of the RSS. Why is Government spending taxpayers money on an unregistered, non-tax-paying organisation to celebrate their centenary?," he added. 

According to reports, the RSS describes itself as a volunteer-based organisation and has stated that it functions as a body of individuals rather than a registered entity.

Founded by Keshav Baliram Hedgewar in 1925, the organisation is marking its centenary year beginning from Vijaydashami in 2025, with the milestone observed on October 2.
