Yesteryear
actress
and
the
wife
of
legendary
late
Dr
Vishnuvardhan,
Bharati
Vishnuvardhan
is
all
set
to
celebrate
her
husband's
62nd
birthday
on
September
18.
Like
last
two
years,
she
with
the
support
of
her
family
and
friends,
is
doing
charity
and
conducting
events
in
the
memory
of
the
Sahasa
Simha.
As
we
called
her
for
a
telephonic
interview,
Bharathi
Vishnuvardhan,
in
a
calm
tone,
spoke
to
us
on
the
62nd
birthday
celebration
of
Dr
Vishnuvardhan
and
various
topics.
Here
are
the
excerpts
from
the
interview:
Earlier,
apart
from
charity,
you
held
a
special
screening
of
Dr
Vishnuvardhan's
memorable
movies
for
three
days.
How
are
you
celebrating
his
birthday
this
time?
We
are
having
a
photo
exhibition
of
Dr
Vishnuvardhan
for
three
days
at
Chitra
Kala
Parishat,
which
started
on
Sunday
(September
16).
Professor
Baraguru
Ramchandrapa
is
the
chief
guest
of
the
event,
still
photographer
KV
Somashekar
(movie
Vamsha
Vruksha)
inaugurated
the
event.
Tara-Lakshmi
Gopalaswamy
and
Sudharani
lit
the
lamps
to
start
the
proceedings
of
the
speech
programme.
We
have
also
organised
special
programs
called
Janashakti
and
Janashakti,
which
will
provide
free
health
check-ups,
medicines
for
various
health-related
issues
for
poor
and
senior
citizens,
at
Abhiman
Studios.
Many
social
organisations
have
joined
us
to
create
health
awareness
and
pro-environmental
campaigns.
What
is
the
status
of
the
Vishnu
memorial
at
Abhiman
Studios?
The
government
has
not
cleared
it
yet.
We
are
putting
pressure
on
the
government
and
Ambaresh
is
having
talks
with
the
officials.
We
are
trying
our
best,
and
many
including
the
president
of
Kanteerava
Studios
have
requested
the
government
to
clear
it
at
the
earliest.
Hopefully,
we
will
have
a
better
picture
in
the
next
two
days.
What
would
you
like
to
do
in
the
future
in
the
memory
of
Dr
Vishnuvardhan?
We
wish
to
take
one-step
at
a
time.
Firstly,
we
should
finish
what
we
had
planned
earlier.
It
is
only
then
we
can
plan
about
the
future.
Isn't
life
been
difficult
without
Vishnuvardhan?
It
is
not
difficult
because
he
is
still
with
us.
All
these
are
happening
because
of
him,
through
him.
He
is
the
guiding
force
behind
us.
I
believe
as
long
as
we
are
alive,
he
will
be
with
us.
How
do
you
keep
yourself
busy
these
days?
Vishnuvardhan
started
Sneha
Loka
to
encourage
talented
cricketers.
It
is
a
platform
for
youngsters
to
prove
their
skills.
It
was
his
dream
and
I
am
looking
after
it.
Likewise,
there
are
many
things,
which
are
keeping
me
busy.
It
is
my
responsibility
to
manage
it
until
my
last
breath.
After
all,
he
is
the
man
who
is
doing
these
through
us.
In
your
long
career,
you
have
acted
in
a
wide
variety
of
roles.
Having
said
that,
is
there
any
role
that
you
had
loved
but
could
not
do
it?
Not
one
but
there
are
many.
An
artist
will
never
have
satisfaction
in
his
life
because
art
is
like
an
ocean.
As
you
pass
by,
you
will
discover
many
precious
stones,
jewels,
etc.
It
is
unlimited.
Somewhere
at
the
bottom
of
the
heart,
every
artist
feels
that
he
could
have
done
that
role
or
he
would
have
done
this
role
better.
You
had
witnessed
the
glories
of
Kannada
film
industry
in
your
times.
But
today,
it
is
believed
that
the
standard
has
seen
downfall...
We
are
moving
in
a
circle.
One
which
was
on
top
has
to
come
down
and
vice-versa.
Time
can
only
answer
it,
as
we
don't
have
any
control
over
it.
It
is
predetermined
and
I
am
sure
that
the
Sandalwood
will
return
to
the
glory
days.
Good
times
will
be
back,
and
changes
are
constant
in
the
world.
Whom
do
you
choose,
if
you
were
asked
to
pick
one
actress
from
the
current
generation
who
would
come
up
to
your
level?
Nobody
can
predict
it.
It
is
in
the
individuals'
hands.
There
are
many
talented
actresses
in
the
industry,
who
are
really
working
hard.
Every
human
will
have
a
good
time.
Whoever
is
able
to
use
it
to
his/her
fullest
ability
and
handle
the
success,
can
achieve
great
feats
in
life.
Disciple,
dedication
and
hardworking
are
ingredients
to
be
successful.
However,
the
underlining
point
is
that
luck
plays
a
vital
role
in
one's
success.
What
would
you
like
to
say
to
younger
generation
actresses?
The
present
lot
of
actresses
are
very
intelligent
than
us.
They
are
good
in
every
aspect
and
they
are
aware
of
what
is
best
for
their
career.
Are
you
acting
in
any
film
now?
No.
I
am
just
acting
in
a
television
serial
titled
Bhagyavantaru.
Janardhan
Rao
Solanki,
who
had
authored
two
books
earlier
on
Dr
Vishnuvardhan,
is
ready
with
his
new
book
‘Karunamayi
Dr
Vishnuvardhan',
a
compilation
of
special
moments
shared
by
people
who
knew
him...
It
shows
his
love
and
affection
towards
Dr
Vishnuvardhan.
