Karna was always put on pedestal by all culture, just look at Hindi star plus mb. There were serials made on him. Dude was a grey character like others, just cause he didn't know he's kuntis son he was a tragic hero and modern culture white washed his grey character. Cause orphan/adopted - he can't do no wrong awww poor kid so what he participated in bastraharan he didn't know who his mommy was.
I agree that every culture is guilty of trying to beat a tragic hero out of Karna but it was made worse for Telugu people by NTR sr, the legendary Telugu actor and Filmmaker, who made multiple movies on Karna and Duryodhana depicting them as the ultimate heros who were done dirty by Pandavas and Lord Krishna. Unfortunately his movies are the go to source material for a lot of current Telugu filmmakers.
