Mmmm...After all, people will one day show their true colours and class, or the lack of it. Ref: The posting by Hachcha Kannadiga. Friend, by the way, it's "Idiot" and not "Ediot". For people with better senses, plagiarism, whoever does it, shouldn't be entertained. Even if it comes from Maniratnam. My problem with Kannada movies is not just lack of originality. The production values are absolutely pathetic. And please enlighten me whether there are any exceptionally talented artists in Kannada now. And I don't think you guys will be brave enough to give names of Ambareesh, Rajkumar or his sick-looking son. For me, Vishnuvardhan has been the only Kannada actor with some charisma. As for people like Upendra and Ravichandran, well, less said the better. And people, next time while using English profanities, cross-check with the Dictionary. Cheers!

Arjun you accept you are a idiot.
O.K. kannada movies some of them are not remakes. We don't have talented actors. We do ambreesh, rajkumar, shivrajkumar [he is not sick-looking], vishnuvardhan, prema, anu prabhakar, tara, any many many more.

Truth (@ kccf*) on: Tue Mar 26 15:48:27
Arjun likes Tamil movies.
But he is originally from kerala.
He lives in Karnataka.
Malayalam and Tamil movies are good for him,
but he cannot tolerate to live in kerala or tamil nadu. The reasons are obvious, there is nothing to drink or eat in kerala and tamil nadu.
Arjun lives in karnataka but criticizes Kannada.
WHAT A SHAMELESS FELLOW!

Lakshmikanth (@ 209.*) on: Tue Mar 26 21:39:11
For Arjun,
If shivaraj kumar is sick looking for Arjun then what we should tell about Rajanikanth , Vijaykanth, Vijay , Paandyan of tamil film land , Ajay devagan, Saif ali khan, Sanjay dhat of hindi film land ? why this partiality ? why this double standards treatment between Hindi ,Tamil and our Kannada ?
Arjun,what do u know about our Upendra ? It is his movie "OM" which was inspiration to "Sathya" of Hindi. And upendra's "operation antha" was the inspiration to Kamal's "Indian". His other movies "A" , "Upendra" collected nearly 10 crores in Karnataka and crossed the collections of even chiranjeevi movie in Andhra Pradhesh. In our Upendra "Talent" flows like a water. So, without knowing much about the person / subject don't ever jump to conclusions and comment.
I am not arguing about the quality of other language movies but just bringing to your notice that EVEN in kannada there are lots of good kannada movies. But you are not aware of that. That's all.

Arjun (@ ppp1*) on: Thu Mar 28 01:39:02
People, why are you guys taking things so personally? Have I ever said that I have anything against KANNADIGAS? My problem is with KANNADA MOVIES. Actually, I have a lot of Kannadiga friends, who swear that they'd prefer watching a Tamil, Hindi or English movie to a Kannada movie. Again, I'm talking about the educated, city-bred youngsters. I dunno about others. Further, I don't consider looks as a criterion for movies. That "sick-looking" comment about Shivraj Kumar was an off-hand one. It doesn't mean that all Tamil heroes are Greek gods. By the way, Rajnikant is NOT sick-looking for me. After Bachchan, he has the most magnetic presence on Indian screen. And Sanjay Dutt! Come on, dude, are you out of your mind?!! Vijaykant, yeah, he IS an obese, sick-looking dud. Vijay, though not terribly handsome, has his own charm. And Pandyan, boy! even in his heyday, he was just a second-rung hero. Now, he has the standing of an extra. So there. There may be the stray good movie released in Kannada. But my contention is clear. In terms of sheer quality, Kannada comes last in the south, as for NOW. And Lakshmikanth, it maybe a matter of perception, but I've tried sitting through a couple of movies of this guy called Upendra. His themes and treatment are refreshing, but for me it was practically impossible to stand the way he acts. Maybe he should quit acting and stick to filmmaking. No offence meant. And Truth, I DON'T stay in Karnataka. I'm proud that my home is in God's Own Country and I just happen to work in Tamil Nadu. I only did my college in Bangalore. Given a choice, I'd always love to be in my little lush green state, even if there isn't anything to eat. ;)

Ramadhasan (@ 209.*) on: Thu Mar 28 15:35:41
Arjun,
My name is Ramadhasan, born and brought up in Bangalore. My mother tounge is Tamil , but i claim myself as a Kannadiga. I see both Kannada and Tamil movies. But i don't think tamil movies are great expect for very few/year. There are some very good movies made in Kannada like "AmruthaVarshini" which is better than any manirathnam movie. i haven't seen a movies like "Om", "America America" , "A" in tamil.
Can u give me the list of all good movies for every year from your Tamil , malayam movies ? are there 100% good movies made every year ? it may be 10%. Do u agree with that ?. It can't be more than 10% good movies made every year in every language. Kannada movies are not getting noticed b'cas Kannadiga's "Lack of Abhimana". It doesn't mean that kannada stands last in southern film land.I think the last position is ALWAYS reserved for malayam PRON movies. so, you better go and enjoy those movies in your god's state. As soon as i hear the word "malayalam movies" i get the meaning as "A movies".
Kannada movies have won 7 times "Best film" award at national level. Do u know this fact ?
Have you seen the movie "Mutthina haara" ? Can u compare with any of your malayalam movie ? Any movie made in malayam of this calibre ? I can give give 10 good movies/year made in kannada. Can you give more than 10 good movies names( per year) from tamil,telugu,hindi, malayalam ? DO you have 100% success rate ?
Even in hollywood 80% movies made are junk.
With all these why you have so much of "HATRED", biased opinions about our Kannada movies.
Get lost to your "GOD's country".
It is the people like you who are pulling our language down and spreading the bad things about our kannada movies. Shame on you.

kannada (@ pool*) on: Fri Mar 29 13:33:27
Look,
i am not sure of this.Does prabhudeva act in tamil?
Well he is doing in the H2o kannada film with upendra? i think that's not a remake. Arjun i know you visit rediff.com regularly. Don't your mind ever pass through something that means the production value of kannada could be increasing. Millions of ruppees have been spent on our films. Kannada film yekangi starring ravichandran is one example. it may not be a remake i hope. But our kannada films are pretty good nowadays.
Look, i am not telling tamilians are bad. i have many friends that are tamilians, very best friends, even telugu speaking friends too!
The real reason for why you can't stand upendra's acting is because you are jealous!
You won't really gain anything by saying kannada films come least in the south by not seeing one.

Arjun (@ ppp1*) on: Sat Mar 30 01:23:31
Ramadasan, I admire your guts and gumption when you give numbers of national awards won by Kannada movies, that too by comparing them to Malayalam movies! You seem to have an affinity towards anything that's sleazy and porn. That's why you think of "porn" when you hear "Malayalam movies". I'm not blaming you. It's all about tastes. Now to the "7 awards which Kannada movies have won". Dude, check these numbers. Mammootty (Best Actor three times). Mohanlal (Best Actor two times; Jury's Special Award once). Other winners(I'm just giving the list of people who have won the Best Actor statuette. I don't want to make this posting so very exhaustive): Balan K. Nair, P J Antony, Balachandra Menon, Suresh Gopi, Gopi, Kalabhavan Mani(Jury's Special Award). Which means actors in Malayalam alone(forget movies, actresses, supporting artistes, directors, cinematographers and other technicians) have won 12 awards. Do I need to say more? Please, don't bring awards and stuff into this. If you do that, all the three other language films would look like pigmies. Ramadasan, it's nice to hear a Tamilian say "our Kannada movies". I hope people in both the states follow your example. But I wouldn't like people to follow your tastes and be dumb enough to say that "Muthina Haara" is better than any Mal. movie. I really wish that this discussion forum had that Laughing Our Loud smiley, like they have in chats. :)) And Kannada, why should I be "jealous" of someone who doesn't even exist in my scheme of things? You don't expect me, who has always admired but never envied, men like Mohanlal, Rajnikant, Amitabh Bachchan, Mammootty and Kamal Haasan, to be jealous of someonelike, pray, Upendra! Do you? He's just an actor, like all the other men I mentioned. I don't owe them anything. I pay money to see them. If they are good, I'll say that. If they aren't, I'll say that too. As simple as that.

kannada (@ pool*) on: Sat Mar 30 17:50:25
Look arjun right now, upendra is not my favorite actor.
I promise i don't know, but how many times have Dr Rajkumar won his national award, state award.[one actor not actors for your kind information] Do you know actress Prema [she acted in tamil film Devi] You might not know her but she or her 2nd or 3rd film won a national award.Anu Prabahakar also also won a express award.
Look Looser, you can't judge some people [well in the hell you are not judgeing people but us you don't hsve any idea about our awards or our achievements because you really don't know.
By the way i don't love Upendra, i can never stand his words but they have some good sense of humor for like seconds that's all. i never meant to compare him to your Perfect stars that matches you very well. Now about Amitabh Bachchan he hosts a remake show " kaun banega karorepati" thats a hit all over India what do you call that as? This is the fact that whole India doesn't know of.
People who do remakes are not pigmies, O.K well if they are you know what i am going to say!!!!!
NOW IT IS A BIG LOL [LAUGH OUT LOUD] or whatever
i have a question for you "What kannada movies have you seen?"
Another favor for me Arjun, see Kannada films that are not remakes and judge them as you usually do?/
Mr Ramdhasan you are really one of my best friends!! I wish kannadigas and tamilians would make a union one day. You could be their inspiration.

Protam (@ tide*) on: Tue Apr 2 17:50:21
Why kannadigas dont watch kannada movies?
Is it because they make only art movies (which are considered high in quality than commercial)
I dont think so? Ravichandran, Upendra, Shivrajkumar dont make art movie.
They just remake commercial movies made in Tamil and telugu. So if I make A by copying from B I must admit that B is better. In that argument Tamil movies are better.
Number of remakes from Tamil to kannada are much higher than kannada to tamil ( 10: 1).
If you see number of awards so far won by kannada cinema, it will be more than Tamil but much less than Bengali or Malayalam. In that Case
Bengali, Malayalam , Kannada movies are good
Hindi, Tamil, Telugu are commercially successful.
Period.
Among Hindi/Tamil/Telugu There are more good quality tamil films.
My 2 cents guys. If you find any history on national awards please post it here. (with link)

Good Brain Protam
What are you doing in a KANNADA forum if TAMIL movies are better?
Kannadigas don't watch kannada movies because there are tamil movies screened in B'lore more than kannada movies. It is a Bandwagon to watch tamil movies. Just becuase everyone does watch them doesn't mean they are perfect. there are few films that became a hit. Why? Amruthavarshini [saw that and came here Om,A,shabdhavedhi,habba etc were hits were'nt they? What do you mean by Commercial movies. Do you know how to speak kannada? Oh do you speak Begali..

Kannada,
Why would more tamil movies released in Bangalore, a place controlled by kannadigas unless tamil movies are better in quality?
Dont give few movies as hits. count the number of hits. Do u think tamil movies are hit only because of the tamil minority community there?
-
poorGuy (@ pige*) on: Fri Apr 5 01:23:01
I think, instead of getting hurt by the statements, we should sit and think where it went wrong. We should be open to the truth. I am not a kannadiga, but i live in banglore since 5yrs.
I think, the producers shd make movies, such a way, that make not only kannadigas, but other state ppl also to sit and watch.
The qn. arise how to make that. There is no harm in coping, but select the film to copy, and how to copy. egs. Kuruthipunal and Nayakan (even though the base theme is godfather they changed it according to indian condition ). I mean to say, instead of blindly imitating others, they shd come out with films that has got mannin mana/ touch of land or naturality.
What u think guys

kannada (@ pool*) on: Sun Apr 7 13:43:47
I agree with both of you. You both are right. I am not saying Non-Kannada movies are bad or kannada movies are perfect. You know what i din't know kannada movies are full of remakes{51%]. But poorGuy you are right Producers are so after money. I think what they are doing is releasing a tamil movie and duubbing it into kannada for money as remakes work very well. The serial may be you have heard it "Parvathi" people who didn't even know kannada were watching it!! And Protam tamilians are not minorities in Bang'l there are a lot of people. May be we mail kannada producer chambers and tell them what we feel and what they can do!!! they might take that into consideration. I am a kannadiga i don't know if you both are. are you willing to help me????

I am not a kannadiga. I just thought what I felt about kannada movies. In your view Kannada movies should be revamped, I agree with you.
My point was it is not tamil movie's fault
After all I see only 3 tamil movies screened in bangalore now (from some website).
-
kannada (@ pool*) on: Mon Apr 8 18:02:56
Protam,
I totally agree that it is not tamil movies fault or tamilians, it is our fault to let down ourselves. Kannada Movies are may be not so good as other language films but kannada movies are not worst.
However,
how many tamil movies are are screened in KARNARTAKA?
How many shows are there for each films and compare that to kannada movies?
Not only tamil movies, how about telugu, hindi films??/?

it,s not that only movies makes the language to grow but the litrature makes it.
many of them had said that they don,t watch kannada movies because they are not so good compare to other.
but kannada litrature is more richer than other language that,s why we have won 8 gana peeta awards do you all read all the books ,no it is your falt that you won,t see kannada movies and you blame the kannada movies.
for your information more than 10 number of theater are closed in madras because tamil film are not running good.
and all says that kannada movies are re make of tamil but the re make was taught by tamilans , they re maked "sathaya harishchandra for the first time, in past 1970-80 tamil films re maked the kannada movies in large amount than today tamil to kannada.

Hello guys,
I too am a great movie buff like all u guys and an ardent follower of Kannada movies. I have a great database and songs collection and am waiting for DVD's to be released in Kannada. Great Kannada movies which can impress any person on earth are Nagara havu, Amritha varshini, OM, A, Upendra, Mutthina Haara, Suprabhatha and the list goes on. I agree that Kannada is not top in commercial hits mainly because of the lack of glamour and music. But we shud be glad that there's not a single movie in Kannada which is dubbed from other languages. Many remakes are there( ihope u know the diff) but i must agree that Kannada is the only language in which movie making quality deteriorated as time passed by though its picking up recently.

cast was Anant NAg. ( pretty kool guy)
the movie had this different approach of a girl calling a guy, and throwing a challenging of finding who she is, and guessing about her .
She would on and off, give clues about her dresses, whereabouts etc. She dies in the climax (cause of some ailment) and the m ovie is WITHOUT A HEROINE!
TOO GRIPPING AND GOOD.
