urbestfriend Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 A sad day for Kannadigas... He was a great legend who won the heart of crores of people of asia, specially in karnataka. My graceful condolence to The GREAT sahasa simha Dr.Vishnuvardhan. His films like Nagarahavu, muttinahara, bhootayyana maga ayyu, suprabhata, bandhana are unforgettable. A sad day indeed for Kanndigas losing two legends( ashwath and Vishnu) in 2 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coffee_rules Posted December 30, 2009 Author Share Posted December 30, 2009 Never heard of him .. know only Rajni' date=' Kamal Hasan, Chiranjeev, Nagarjuna and a few others from south .. anyways sad to hear .. RIP[/quote'] He kept a low profile natrionally unlike other stars. He has acted in films of all 4 south Indian languages and also couple of Hindi films. He married another star actress of 70s - Bharathi who is also known all across south India and even some Hindi films. She is a couple of years older than him.

DomainK Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 RIP. I really can not understand why people get violent and destroy public property when a celebrity dies. I have never heard anyone set his own house on fire in grief- they always step outside and destroy others' properties. I remember a lot of rioting in Bangalore after Rajkumar died.

punjabi_khota Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 Can any explain why the **** does this rioting occur after a celeb death in Karnataka ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
urbestfriend Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 Can any explain why the **** does this rioting occur after a celeb death in Karnataka ? I dont think there is any rioting as such, his fans gathered in lakhs to pay homage and police lathicharged to control the frenzied fans.Some angry fans who couldn't pay homage went on a rampage damaging some vehicles. It is a minor incident happened in one part where actors mortal remains have been kept, which could have happened in any part of India. But I don't know why this media is showing as if whole Bangalore is burning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indus_Army Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 RIP Vishnuvardhan Feeling sad after watching this video. oXx-7fD82PA With Vishnu's passing away, a great era in kannada cinema has come to an end. It was the time when Dr.Raj & Vishnuvardhan ruled the roost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Temujin Khaghan Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 RIP. I really can not understand why people get violent and destroy public property when a celebrity dies. I have never heard anyone set his own house on fire in grief- they always step outside and destroy others' properties. I remember a lot of rioting in Bangalore after Rajkumar died. rowdy elements waiting for a chance thatsall. real fans only mourn quietly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Temujin Khaghan Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 70s and 80s were definitely the golden era for kannada cinema. Its been downhill ever since. for a non-kannadiga like me, the most entertaining contribution from kannada industry was the "malgudi days". just loved them when i was a kid.

champ Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 its sad to know vishnuvardhan died just before the new year .. i am back from vacation and got to know abt this just today .. my memories of his good movies were suprabatha and muthina haara and many others .. he and suhasini made a lovely onscreen pair .. the song "nanna haadu nannadu" from suprabatha was too good .. RIP sahasa simha .. as for the voilence .. it just insane actions from useless bad elements .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brainfade Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 as for the voilence .. it just insane actions from useless bad elements .. The excuse they give is that they were not able to get a glimpse of the body. Some weird sense of entitlement and attachment to the celebrity. Your note about Muthina Haara remindid me of Madikeri Sipaayi ... a favorite of mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
