Here
is
good
news
for
the
fans
of
Kannada's
cultural
icon
Padmabushana
Dr
Rajkumar.
After
Satya
Harishchandra,
another
black
and
white
version
movie
of
Dr
Rajkumar
is
all
set
to
get
re-released
in
colour.
Distributor
KCN
Mohan,
who
owns
the
distribution
rights
of
Kasturi
Nivasa
had
taken
the
responsibility
of
making
the
black
and
white
movie
into
colour.
Kasturi
Nivasa,
which
was
released
in
1971,
was
distributed
by
Mohan's
father
KCN
Gowda.
KCN
Mohan
said,
"It
was
my
father's
wish
to
convert
many
Kannada
black
and
white
movies
to
colour.
Now
his
wish
is
coming
true
with
Kasturi
Nivasa.
I
hope
the
audience
will
admire
the
colour
version
of
Kasturi
Nivasa
like
Satya
Harishchandra."
Apart
from
Rajkumar,
Kasturi
Nivasa
also
featured
Jayanthi,
Aarathi,
KS
Ashwath
and
Rajashankar
in
the
significant
roles.
It
was
produced
and
directed
by
Dorai
Bhagawan.
Music
composer
GK
Venkatesh
had
scored
the
music
for
the
movie.
"Making
a
black
and
white
movie
into
colour
is
not
an
easy
job.
It
will
fetch
us
the
same
cost
in
which
we
can
produce
another
movie
today.
I
have
scheduled
to
re-release
the
colour
version
of
Kasturi
Nivasa
on
Dr
Rajkumar's
birthday,
April
24," Mohan
added.
