Calculations in love and life

The prominent director of Kannada cinema Nagathihalli Chandrasekhar is back after a debacle 'Mathad Mathad Mallige' for the same producer K.Manju. Known for vibrant thoughts on silver screen Nagathihalli Chandrasekhar this time is adapting his own story written 17 years ago for a monthly Kannada magazine 'Bhoomi Gundagidhe'. This particular story raised hue and cry in the past. This story was published in 'Bharat Kahaniya' published 'Bharatiya Jnanapeth Prakashana in 1993.

The same subject Nagathihalli has rewritten with the help of Jogi (H.Girish Rao eminent writer and journalist). Both have jointly worked 0n the screenplay and given new touch to the subject 'Olave Jeevana Lekkachara'. That means for love and life there is calculation involved.

There is a clash between ideology and emotions, romanticism and sarcasm says Nagathihalli. The film starring Srinagara Kitty and newcomer Anvitha from Kuwait went on the floors on the auspicious day April 14 (Sri Ramanavami and Dr.Ambedkar Jayanthi) at Sri Venkataramana Swamy Temple in JP Nagar, Bangalore. Dr.Vishnuvardhana sounded the clap board for the maiden shot captured on Kitty and Anvitha.

The moving train is another important element of this film says Nagathihlli. Three songs for the film will be written by Nagathi and two are picked from Sri Purandaradasa Keerthane and B.R.Lakshma Rao poem collection.

The film 'Mathad Mathad Mallige' was not according to the calculations. The minimum of 100 days run was expected. Now this film will not happen like the earlier said producer K.Manju who has 'Aramane' and 'Rajakumari' set for release.

Kitty feels comfortable to work with a bright and bubbly script. Debutant Anvitha a resident of Kuwait since two years is studying in theatre art. She plays the heroine in the director whom she likes very much.

Ajay Vincent is the cameraman and Mano Murthy scores the music.
