Posted date: 26 Fri, Oct 2012 ? 03:10:15 PM
One of the senior most directors of Kannada cinema hitting century in direction in next year – he is in 95th film direction ‘Nandeesha’ – is looking better from the point of view of problems.

One ‘Devaru Kotta Thangi’ turned out to be ‘Devaru Kotta Shaapa’ for Saiprakash as he dipped in loans completely. He even tried to commit suicide to end his problems permanently. He miraculously escaped from the jaws of death. He is standing tall today and has only Rs.50 lakhs loans. He was in Rs.3 crores loss from ‘DKT’ two years ago. From the days of ‘Adhi Chunchanagiri Mahime’ film Sai Prakash is seeing the sign of victory in his life.

Seven sites, two acres of land, one house, Tavara vehicle and two kilograms of gold Saiprakash pledged to clear his loans. It amounted to Rs.2 crores plus.

It is not right to ask where this director made so much of property! In the business of entertainment losing and gaining is very common.

Director Sai Prakash known for sentiment films in Kannada is once again going in for sentiment films. I owe a lot to Shirdi Sai Baba and Puttaparthi Sai Baba. So my 101st film is ‘Sai Avatar’ on the life sketch of Shirdi Saibaba. Jayashanker who made ‘Premigaagi’ is the producer of this film. It was in 1994 I made a film on ‘Sai Baba’ that fared badly. I was immature at that time agrees Sai Prakash.

What for the Avatar of Sri Shirdi Saibaba and what he did for the society is explained rather than the routine aspects. This new look what I am giving would further emphasize on the people devotion. The Mahatmas ‘Avatar’ will not be looked low from this film on silver screen hopes Sai Prakash. After ‘Shirdi Sai Baba’, Saiprakash is hoping in a bigger way again in ‘Puttaparthi Sai Baba’ who passed away recently.

There is no need to say Sai Prakash is a great devotee of ‘Shirdi and Puttaparthi’ Sai Baba. He had taken ‘Deekshe’ to be on bare foot when Dr Rajakumar was kidnapped and again when Puttaparthi Sai Baba health was bad Sai Prakahs took Deekshe to remain bare foot sacrificing happiness of his life.

Speaking to a few journalists at The Bell Hotel Sai Prakash remembered the statement of Sai Baba he once made to him on devotees. Off late ‘Devotees are coming with applications’ – how can I call them as devotees even shocked Sai Prakash.

Giving a break to 100th film Sai Prakash is taking up 100th film. He had done like that for his 50th film ‘Halli Hero’. The film title was announced and so far Sai Prakash had not taken it up. His 101st film will be ‘Sai Avatar’. He is launching in the next year. His mentor Kodi Ramakrishna is doing a film on ‘Sai Baba’ in a grand scale has made Sai Prakash to wait for some time. The film of Nagarjuna on ‘Shirdi Sai Baba’ by K Raghavendra Rao century films director was not up to the mark in reach points Sai Prakash.

Meanwhile the 96th film of Sai Prakash is ‘Manam Kothi Paravai’ made in Tamil and considered as super hit will be remade in Kannada. Jayashanker is the producer.

On the fate of directors remuneration Sai Prakash is not quite happy. I started off with ‘Muthinantha Manushya’. There was no remuneration for me. The maximum I have received around Rs.8 lakh. Sai Prakash remembered his marriage in 1972 that had spending of Rs.12000.
