‘Indo-Hollywood
banner’s maiden sandalwood production ‘Preethi Prema Pranaya’
celebrated 100 days function at Badami House in Bangalore
on Saturday evening. It was rain of applauds for Kavitha
Lankesh the director of the film. Either the background
poster on the stage nor the speeches made remembered the
producers who are far away. Mano Murthy the music director
of the film who was supposed to take part in this function
did not turn up because of an operation he had to undergo
in USA. Except this announcement no thanks giving was
heard from anyone for the producers.
After
the traditional lighting the lamp by Jayanthi and Bharathi
there was some novelty in the way the celebration was
held. The first session with Jayanthi, B.Sarojadevi, M.S.Sathyu,
Vishnuvardhan, Ramesh Aravind and Vijaya Raghavendra on
the dais gave away the mementoes to artistes. Gautam on
behalf of Mano Murthy received the mementoes two times
- once on behalf of the producer and then again for the
music direction.
In the second
session the key artistes of ‘Preethi Prema Pranaya’ –
Bharathi Vishnuvardhan, Ananthnag, Prakash Rai, Sudharani,
Anu Krishnakumar and Kavitha gave away the mementoes to
technicians of the film.
Kavitha
disclosed that she is embarrassed with so many ‘Hoguluvike’.
Ananthji asked me whether this would run in theatres successfully.
But this day has come I am ‘kush’. Despite of the troubles
poured on this film after three months delay this film
ran for 100 days and I am happy for that. I had no problem
from the producers she did not forget to add.
What was not
appreciable was that the top respected artistes Bharathi
Vishnuvardhan and Ananthnag also forgot to thank the producers
(NRI’s) who have poured money for the making of this film.
In the banner behind the stage it was seen `Indo-Hollywood
present', but there was no names of the producers!
A party on this 100
days celebration was arranged at Century Club in Bangalore. From
9 pm it went on till 11.30 pm on Saturday.
