Diganth's Edagaiye Apaghatakke Kaarana finally gets a release date
'Independent filmmaking, especially for first-timers like me, is a long and uncertain road,' shares Samarth. 'Initially, I planned to make a splash with Antagoni Shetty, with Rishab Shetty in the lead. I was also one of the writers on his directorial Rudraprayag, which is still on hold. But then EAK took shape, and I've learned so much through its making. Post-Covid, things got even more challenging, but the passion kept it alive,' says Samarth. The film's production saw multiple changes in producers over time. It has now found solid backing in Ravichandran AJ, producer of Blink, and Rajesh Keelambi, producer of Shakahari. 'After watching the film, they believed in its potential and gave it the push it needed. Their support has breathed new life into the project,' says Samarth.

Free WiFi now available for Kedarnath pilgrims
Pilgrims visiting Kedarnath will get free, high-speed WiFi in and around the Himalayan temple after the facility became operational on Saturday following a successful trial. The pilgrims can avail themselves of the facility by registering their mobile numbers and generating a one-time password (OTP), Chief Development Officer (Rudraprayag) GS Khati said. The WiFi facility can be availed for 30 minutes, he said. Continuous efforts are being made to further improve facilities for Char Dham pilgrims. The disaster-sensitive Rudraprayag district in which the temple is situated has already established its own wireless intranet system -- District Disaster Resource Network. The system not only operates continuously even during disasters or emergencies but also has mobile data, voice calling and high-quality CCTV visual capabilities, Khati said. During the July 2024 Kedarnath trek route disaster, when other mobile networks had completely stopped working, this system became a lifeline for travellers, labourers and rescue teams. The stranded pilgrims could contact their families using the network. It also helped the relief and rescue operation.
