Krishna
On
His
Relationship
With
Sudeep
When
asked
about
the
relationship
he
shares
with
the
Superstar,
Krishna
said,
"Sudeep
and
I
share
a
13-year
old
friendship.
He
was
the
hero
in
my
first
major
film
as
a
cinematographer
and
we
have
worked
together
in
4
films.
There
is
a
lot
of
trust
between
us."
Why
Did
They
Fight
Then?
Similar
to
every
director-actor
duo,
Sudeep
and
Krishna
also
indulge
in
discussions
and
arguments
concerning
their
film.
"Cinema
is
a
common
connection
for
both
of
us.
When
we
quarrel,
it
is
only
about
the
content."
Kiccha
Financed
The
Film
In
previous
interviews,
Krishna
revealed
to
the
media
that
he
had
no
monetary
backup
when
he
envisioned
Pailwaan.
We
are
taken
aback
upon
hearing
that
Sudeep
did
not
even
accept
remuneration
for
the
movie.
Krishna
told
the
publication,
"He
helped
start
Pailwaan
by
giving
us
money.
So
it's
important
that
we
didn't
misuse
or
disappoint
him
because
he
was
standing
by
us."
Pailwaan
Was
A
Safe
Bet,
Says
Krishna
Pailwaan
is
one-of-its-kind
in
Sandalwood.
But,
it
takes
a
lot
more
than
just
an
idea
to
create
a
film
based
on
sports
in
an
industry
that
is
driven
by
the
mass
audience.
Talking
about
this,
Krishna
said,
"It's
a
safe
bet
because
everyone
already
knows
the
climax.
The
hero
is
going
to
win
and
the
audience,
naturally,
doesn't
expect
anything
beyond.
You
tell
a
story
and
if
it's
a
good
one,
it
will
work."
