News

By By: Shekhar H Hooli
Dr.
Bharathi
Vishnuvardhan,
the
wife
of
late
actor
Dr.
Vishnuvardhan,
is
upset
with
producer
Dwarakish
commercial
behaviour
over
naming
his
next
movie
as
Vishnuvardhana.
She
was
deeply
hurt
after
reading
the
reports
about
the
film.
Now,
she
has
filed
a
case
against
the
producer
at
Karnataka
Film
Chamber
of
Commerce
(KFCC).
In
an
interview
to
a
private
Kannada
news
channel,
Dr.
Bharathi
Vishnuvardhan
condemned
Dwarakish's
act
of
using
her
hubby's
name
for
some
gain.
The
actress
said,
"My
husband
was
a
great
legendry
Kannada
actor.
He
has
struggled
a
lot
for
Kannada
film
industry
and
5
crore
people
of
Karnataka
know
it."
She
added,
"Even
though
Vishnu
is
not
with
us,
we
need
to
respect
his
name
and
should
not
use
it
for
commercial
purpose.
I
won't
let
anyone
including
Dwarakish
use
his
name
to
earn
money
because
I
don't
want
his
name
to
become
a
cheap
subject.
And
Dwarakish
should
drop
his
idea
of
naming
his
film
after
Vishnu."
Talking
about
the
case
against
Dwarakish,
actress
Bharathi
said,
"Dwarakish
has
no
right
to
use
Vishnu's
name.
Moreover,
there
is
rule
in
KFCC
that
name
of
a
big
personality
should
not
be
used
for
movie
title.
I've
filed
a
case
against
the
producer
at
KFCC
under
this
act
and
I
hope
KFCC
will
also
uphold
it."
Earlier,
Dwarakish
had
said
that
he
was
a
close
friend
of
Vishnu
and
had
lot
of
love
at
his
heart
for
him
and
wanted
to
pay
tribute
him
by
naming
his
movie
as
Vishnuvardhana.
Condemning
his
statement
Bharathi
said,
"The
whole
Karnataka
knows
how
was
his
relationship
with
my
hubby
and
how
he
has
ill
treated
him.
There're
several
incidents
to
describe
it.
He
will
not
have
face
to
show
to
public,
if
I
open
up
about
one
particular
incident.
I
say
this
man
doesn't
have
respect
for
Vishnu.
If
he
had,
he
would
not
have
committed
this
cheap
act."
Meanwhile,
Basanth
Kumar
Patil,
the
president
of
KFCC,
has
said
the
there
is
a
particular
committee
at
KFCC
to
register
movie
titles
and
there
is
rule
that
name
of
a
big
shots
should
not
be
used
for
title.
Now,
Dwarakish
has
applied
for
the
title
and
we
won't
allow
him
to
use
his
name
under
this
act.
Moreover,
he
has
been
in
the
film
industry
for
the
past
45
years
and
I
hope
he
will
understand
the
rules
of
KFCC
and
follow
it."
However,
despite
the
ongoing
row
over
title,
the
producer
is
doing
the
Muhurtha
of
the
film
at
Abbaya
Naidu
Studio
today.
The
film
features
Kicha
Sudeep,
Malayalam
actresses
Bhavana
and
Priyamani.
V
Kumar
is
directing
the
film
and
V
Harikrishna
is
busy
composing
music
for
it.
