The
untimely
passing
of
Chiranjeevi
Sarja
has
left
a
big
hole
in
the
hearts
of
audiences
of
the
Kannada
film
industry.
However,
we
may
get
to
see
Chiru
on
the
big
screen
very
soon
in
three
movies,
that
were
under
various
stages
of
production
before
his
untimely
demise.
Chiranjeevi
Sarja
starrer
Ranam
is
complete
and
was
initially
looking
to
release
in
July
this
year.
The
movie
will
see
the
late
actor
play
the
role
of
an
encounter
specialist
and
will
also
star
Chetan
Kumar.
Besides
the
aforementioned
R
Srinivas
production,
the
makers
of
Sarja’s
last
big-screen
outing
Shivarjuna
are
planning
on
re-releasing
the
movie
in
the
theatres.
For
the
unversed,
the
mass
entertainer
had
opened
just
a
day
before
the
lockdown
and
as
a
result,
had
to
be
taken
down.
Meanwhile,
Raja
Marthanda
director
Ram
Narayan
has
revealed
that
the
team
is
left
with
the
filming
of
a
duet
song
sequence
and
dubbing
of
the
film.
He
revealed,
“The
lockdown
did
not
let
us
complete
the
film
in
time,
and
Chiranjeevi
had
plans
to
start
dubbing
sometime
this
month.
He
had
called
me
a
few
days
ago
to
discuss
about
it.
We
had
planned
to
shoot
one
duet
song
at
a
foreign
location,
but
that
could
not
take
place.”
And
finally,
the
third
film
of
Sarja
titled
Kshatriya
is
70
percent
complete
and
as
a
result,
debut
director
Anil
Madya
plans
to
complete
the
remaining
portions
of
the
film
with
the
help
of
computer
graphics.
“We
are
done
with
70
percent
of
the
shoot,
which
will
be
processed
and
the
rest
will
be
planned
when
I
sit
with
the
producer
in
the
coming
days,”
he
said.
