Vajreshwari/Poornima Combines

Annavara family productions ide eradu. Well I have been a fan of Annavaru/family movies, I try watch them even if they are half good. The topic of this blog is on the debut movies of Dr. Rajkumar's son.
Anand, Shivrajkumar was introduced to KFI from this movie, Sudharani also debuted along with this movie. The movie had a college rivallary as the background. Gurudatt and Balaraj too debuted with this movie, they acted as his friends in many more movies to come. Anand had some good songs and decent background music, guitar being the major instrument. Ofcourse it was a big hit, next two movies of Shivrajkumar, Rathasapthami and Manamechida hudugi were big hits too earning him the title Hatrick Hero.
Nanjundi Kalyana launched Raghvendra Rajkumar on silverscreen, this movie broke most of the previous record in kannada Film Industry, Raghvendra along with Malashri created magic to sustain the movie to run for a year or so. Malashri was absolute craze after the movie, songs/comedy scenes too were good. Raghvendra gave a back to back hit with Malashri in Gajapathi Garvabanga, Raghvendras career didnt exactly take off, but Malashri ruled the kannada film industry for years.
Appu, Puneet rajkumar needed no introduction to kannada film audience, he had acted in many films as a child artiste and had even got a national award for a film. This too was a college love story with Puneeth being a strong easy go lucky type of character. Raksitha debuted with Puneeth in this pukka commercial movie. As expected this movie too was a fantastic hit, movie had good songs, good comedy and great fights. Puneeth had tremendous screen prescence, everybody knew he was here to stay. His renumeration was the highest in the industry right after this movie till ofcourse Mungaru male happened.
All the heroines introduced with Dr. Rajkumar's sons went to be really succesful in their careers, they couldnt have asked for a better launchpad. Hope they cointinue to give good movies for entertainment starved kannada audience.

Beeda guru pataki!!!

There was a time when I used to zealously gaurd my share of crackers, ration them, burn the best of them on third day night. Then in a Diwali 12 years back, my dad gave me an option to have the money instead of crackers, whatever came on me, that day onwards I never burned crackers. Now looking back, I never ever repented the decision, it was just like a switch was turned off. Well the reason I boring you with story is that, if another few hundred of bangaloreans had this switch turned off in them, Benagaluru would have been a much cleaner and safer place. If you ride a two wheeler, you are always dodging bombs on Diwali day, if you want to relax of the holidays, you can be assured of insomnia and if you are a member of Avian population, you are in for the most frightning phase in your life. Air pollution adds to the tremendous amount of shivakasi scrap adorning the Bengaluru roads, try going for a walk on a Deepavali weekend, you would feel you are better off walking in volcanic crater.
Well there is no reason not to ban public fireworks, govt can organise Fireorks show like in the rest of the world, this would go a long way in improving the quality of life.

Yeah, a dumb blog!! Wanted to vent the frustation.
