Producer Munirathna Naidu was in choked voice when the reference of Dr Ambarish came up at the media address to announce audio release and film release date at Shangrila Hotel in Bengaluru on Saturday evening.

I must bow my head for the generosity of Dr Ambarish. He said clearly that it is difficult to perform in Bhishma role. I have asked him to suggest an alternative. Finally he took part in 20 days of shooting. He used to sit with costumes and never use to take any food at that time.

After finishing shooting one fine day my director Naganna told me that Ambarish wants to dub for his role of ‘Bhishma’. I told him there is no urgency, moths we could wait for it. Dr Ambarish wished to dub quickly for his portions. He came with director Naganna to dubbing room and in two days completed his dialogue portion. Have you ever seen an actor of Ambarish stature to complete dubbing without payment?

Munirathna Naidu to remember Dr Ambarish forever he has decided to come up with silicon structure of his get up of ‘Bhishma’ at his memorial in Sri Kanteerava studio.

Munirathna Naidu is coming up with 5 acres of Museum and garden at Mallathahalli surroundings on 72 acres land. In that land he is coming up Sri Shivakumaraswamiji, Sri Balagangadharanatha Swamiji and two others in silicon quality that has life of over 100 years.

Why he is not getting the ministry role in Congress I and JDS coalition government? Each one has a disease in life. The one I have is ‘Caste’ – I don’t have advantage of my caste he says. However we will see Rahul Gandhi as Prime Minister firmly says Munirathna Naidu.

Has Munirathna Naidu turned philosophical? It is true. He says before we leave from this earth we have to leave some footprints of good work he says.
