Influencer's Remark About Bengaluru Sparks Controversy; Deets Inside

A bizarre video of social media influencer Sugandh Sharma claiming that North Indians had built Bengaluru and that the city could not survive without migrants has gone viral on social media. Now, she is facing backlash for her video and several Kannada celebrities asked the influencer to leave Bengaluru as an experiment and slammed her for trying to gain social media fame by defaming the tech capital.

"North Indians In Bengaluru Start Vacating This City"

In the clip that she shared on her social media, she said, "Imagine what happens, if North Indians in Bengaluru start vacating this city. The PG owners will stop making money as nobody will stay in their places. Who will dance to Punjabi music in Koramangala pubs?"

She mentioned Bengaluru would lose its charm if the migrants started going back. She added, "The charm of Bengaluru will be entirely lost if migrants go back. The Kannadigas must understand that before asking us to leave." 

"If You Can Actually Leave..."

Her video didn't go well with Kannada stars. Popular actor Chaithra Achar wrote, "If you can actually leave, just as an experiment, and see how Bangalore becomes empty, we are ready to live with that emptiness and dancers less pubs. We can live with it. Really. Forget all other North Indians. You leave ma'am, enough for now." Another actor Anupama Gowda wrote, "If you think this is cool, nope it isn't. You need bengluru more than anything else and you leaving Bengaluru doesn't make any difference to our OORU and for a fact that we all know you can't leave Bengaluru - If you know you know."
