SC rejects 'Thug Life' Karnataka release citing 'Clear Arson Threats'

The Supreme Court declined to protect cinemas screening 'Thug Life' in Karnataka after threats from pro-Kannada groups angered by Kamal Haasan's language comments. The Kannada Rakshana Vedike threatened arson, prompting a plea for security. Justice Mishra dismissed the petition, advising theatres to "keep fire extinguishers ready" and seek help from the High Court.
