While the stars dazzle at the 75th anniversary celebrations of Kannada cinema, a police constable relives some sepia-tinted memories at an exhibition at the Palace Grounds in Bangalore on Monday.

Spare us the tyranny of the inane. No more talk about Kannada films or their music.

I saw Ramesh’s “Accident” last weekend.
The colour version of “Satya Harishchandra” remains the best Kannada movie I’ve seen in the last one year.

Agree with PTL. We all know that our movies are being produced by some tom, dick and harry(read realtors) who dunno where to hide hard earned money. If a movie fails they blame it on piracy. They shamelessly remake movies and blame non-Kannada movies if they incur loss. Make gud movies we will watch, compose gud songs we will listen.

Kannada film industry did not evolve overnight. It has grown. Of course, any growth may be viewed from diff angles. At least for some nostalgie memories haunt them. There is nothing wrong in thinking about the developments, not from one angle, technicaly too we have to lok at it. In the modern competitive3 world everybody has to strive hard for their survival.

Yeno Ondhu–
Say I want to turn four crores into white. Spend three of it on making a movie, the last one on hired goons who will be given free tickets to watch the movie until the movie becomes a hit or the screening rights sold to the TVs. I suspect what I once I called a palegar clan in the Kannada movie industry has been using this stratagem for decades also as a means of keeping the family stars in the public eye regardless of their abysmal lack of talent. Somewhat like what Devegowda does with his brood.
Thanks, Pul.
