· In all the 24 films of my production house Sri Raghavendra Chitravani has worked and I cannot forget Sri DV Sudheendra – BN Gangadhar
· Recognizing the writer from Mysooru is a good sign – journalist Mysooru Rajan.
· Only invited people come to this function. What big institutions and government does Sri Raghavendra Chitravani is doing. Mahesh Bhat….sorry Yogaraj Bhat and R Nagendra Rao generation and Meshtru on stage receiving this award makes me proud Tiptur Raghu.
· I did not felt the event would be so big. I wanted to see a few personalities very close. It has happened from this function. In 73 I loved Sudarshan and I am happy in my life – Shylasri Sudarshan. Shylassri delivered Nee Nadeva Haadiyalli….song.
· After my touch was lost for my stay in Chennai, when I came back to Bengaluru I met DV Sudheendra first. I always sing the song of Yogaraj Bhat Sikkapatte Sala Ithtthu….I would sing from my Atmadinda…..RN Sudarshan rendered Apara Keerthi….
· I dedicate my first award to my father Srinivasamurthy and mother. They are hoping that I would do something one day. Nanage Bhatru, Meshtru munde this award ‘Nachike Aguthe’…..Naveen Krishna.
· A director cannot alone do everything in cinema. Support is needed from all quarters = Rakshit Shetty.
· Sudheendra Venkatesh is my family and I call him Big B. In my slog days ‘Athmasthairya after financial accident came from a few people like Srinivas, Jain, Sathyaraju, Dilip….today Ogara is catering to 10 thousand students with Ruchi and Shuchi – Raghunath of SRV Productions.
· Today I would reveal that my dancing and singing mentors are Shylasri and Sudarahan. I had no opportunity say. Why I am thin, my metabolism is like that. I am Odda….Sakkathagi tinthini.
· I am having Sahaja Santosha for national award but somehow there is ‘Mujugara’ for me – Sanchari Vijay.
· With big happiness I am receiving Jayanth award. It is like Ragimudde and Anna coming to me. I have seen journalist work closely. It is very tough and tiresome. It is strenuous job. I wish all journalist good and hope for good write ups to Kannada films – Yogaraj Bhat.
