Because time is a commodity and people like to spend on experiences given pleasure to them.

ಭಟ್ಟರೇ, ಬರೆದಿರೋ ಅಂಕಣಗಳನ್ನೇ ಪುಸ್ತಕ ಅಂತ ಮಾಡಿದ್ರೆ ಯಾಕ್ ಓದಬೇಕು ಹೇಳಿ?

Speed yuga. Mobile speed. 5G . Book reading inertia.

Even at Carnatic music concerts, say Rama Navami concerts in Fort High School, per-day cost of season ticket is less than what person spends at the food stall! A culture has to be created where it is a status symbol and fashionable to pay proper price for intellectual products.

Forget Kannada, English.. it's rare to find people who read books these days. Reading is less exciting, scrolling is the best.

Book reading habit will never come back that to in insta times

Book readership and print media is on the decline across the board. not just kannada. one way to also help readership is to do ebooks not just print media.

ನಮ್ಮಲಿ ನಮ್ಮ ಕನ್ನಡ ಪುಸ್ತಕದ ಮಹತ್ವದ ಬಗ್ಗೆ ಅರಿವಿಲ್ಲ, ನಿಜವಾಗಲೂ ಹೇಳಬೇಕೆಂದರೆ ನಮ್ಮ ಕನ್ನಡ ಕೃತಿಗಳು ಮಾಣಿಕ್ಯ, ಅಮೂಲ್ಯವಾದ ಮಾಣಿಕ್ಯಗಳು, ಮಾಣಿಕ್ಯ ಗಳಿಗೆ ಬೆಲೆ ಕಟ್ಟಲು ರತ್ನ ಪರೀಕ್ಷಕರಿಂದಲೇ ಸಾಧ್ಯ, ಹಾಗೆಯೇ ಮಾಣಿಕ್ಯಗಳು ಸಾಧಾರಣ ಕಲ್ಲು ಹರಳಿನ ಬೆಲೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ಸಿಗುತಿದ್ದರೆ ಅದು ನಿಜವಾಗಲೂ ಓದುಗರಿಗೆ ಒಳ್ಳೆಯ ಅದೃಷ್ಟವೇ ಸರಿ

This is one of the facts Meanwhile other fact is that S L Bairappa Books were sold & made records (I think some other authors too) Recently, if I see the topics or subjects interesting from readers viewpoint is not so much available,

People ordering Dal Tadka have already given up kannada. pls understand.

Reading is giving way to short videos and audio clips. Shortlisted thoughts?

Sometimes I feel we say kannada kannada but never support people who put effort to do something in kannada

ಕನ್ನಡ ಕಡ್ಡಾಯ ಮಾಡಿದಾಗ ರಾಷ್ಟ್ರೀಯವಾದಿಗಳು ಬೊಬ್ಬೆ ಹೊಡೀತಾರೆ ನೋಡಿ ಅದು ಮುಖ್ಯ ಕಾರಣ.

Anyone please suggest a kannada book to read and the genre should be thriller and crime, suspense

Consequences of imposing literacy in the nama of education on all.

If Shri Jayant Kaikini holds a ticketed session (of talk or question-answers) and entry is only for people who purchase a copy of his book, then it will work. Marketing of books should be creative. Comparing with food cost will not work: eating is basic urge, mind is optional!
