Sets A Trend Again

Date - 14th June 2003
 The
septuagenarian street plays father, theatre activist,
senior film journalist all rolled in to one A.S.MURTHY
has set yet another trend of one month of workshop in
acting for Film and Television interested persons at Abhinaya
Tharanga in Hanumanthnagar. The month long workshop ‘FRAME’
beauty is that the participants from all over India get
to know what is acting from top personalities in Kannada
besides getting a feel of technicalities of film production.
What the giants are doing by charging heavy fees all over
Murthyavaru is giving a lovely contribution via Frame.
A few days
ago A.S.Murthy and Gauri Dattu organized the inaugural
function of ‘Frame’ at Nayana Hall adjacent to Ravindra
Kalakshetra in Bangalore. Superstar Vishnuvardhan inaugurated
the ‘Frame’ through his signature. Along with him Dr.Chandrasekhara
Kambara, C.S.Kedar secretary of Kannada and Culture department
and senior journalist H.Girish Rao alias Jogi were on
the dais to give their opinions on acting.
 Mr
Jogi, senior journalist in popular Kannada Prabha daily
a member of ‘Frame’ committee gave some useful tips and
opinion on acting in his speech. An actor should remain
in frame but still has to come out. He recalled a Sanskrit
poem and described the position of an artist from his
reel to real life. An actor should express through his
language and acting. But in today cinema and television
if an effort is made to teach the language it is enough.
Acting could be learnt by continuous performance Jogi
felt. In today’s world no child say that he wants to become
an actor. But in those days an actor like Vishnuvardhan
just from his performance in ‘Nagarahavu’ has excelled
every friend of his. That height is possible for persons
like him. According to me an actor is like ‘Purushottama’.
The shining glowing star we always remember ‘Dhruva’ was
also a human being and then only he catapulted to such
a position. I feel it is enough of talk from my end Jogi
cut short his rain of thoughts in a witty style and that
aroused laughter in the packed auditorium.
Vishnuvarhdn
in his speech agreed that the concept is good. Artist
work is captured in a frame is available on big and small
screens. According to me acting is equivalent to College
and an actor is a student in a classroom. I am still a
student Vishnu admitted once again. These 30 years of
long stay of mine has come from ‘Yoga’ and not ‘Yogyathe’.
There are many students like me still learning in the
classroom. This learning process has started from ‘Frame’.
I wish all the best for A.S.Murthy’s brainchild ‘Frame’
Vishnu added.
For this studying
classroom I welcome everyone. This A.S.Murthy is a wonderful
man with potentiality. From 1981 under ‘Abhinaya Tharanga’
is doing one or the other work expressed the giant Dr.Chandrasekhara
Kambara in his speech. According to me Vishnuvardhan is
one of the top actors of this world cinema. In all the
films he has acted he remained a different individual
and we can easily say we have seen so many Vishnuvardhanas.
But sadly acting is not taken seriously besides having
a poor knowledge about the language. For me acting is
50 percent art and 50 percent is discipline. When the
Hollywood people are making good films without subjects
why we are lagging behind with subjects is the question
mark in my mind said Kambara. Acting is not imitation
or entering into that role but it is INTERPRETATION opined
Dr.Kambara in his address.
M.D.Pallavi
sang the opening song. Inspired with such a mellifluous
song the Secretary of Kannada culture C.S.Kedar also sang
a song to invoke the rain God. Dr Kambara on insistence
also showed his singing capacity is in tact.
Mrs Gauri
Dattu explained the intentions of ‘Frame’ in her address.
Venkatesh proposed a vote of thanks.
From Monday
to Saturday from 8th June onwards the workshop is open
for interested persons at Abhinaya Tharanga, Kalamandira,
Aa.Na.Subba Rao road, Hanumanthnagar, Bangalore. Ph No.
080-6524253.
