The Kannada and Telugu film ‘Srimathi’ is for the first time shaping up after Upendra and Priyanka became ‘Sathi and Pathi’ in real life. Before marriage they acted in ‘H20’ bilingual film in Kannada and Tamil. To this remake of Hindi film ‘Aitraaz’ (starring Akshay Kumar, Kareena Kapoor, Priyanka Chopra, Anu Kapoor and Amrish Puri) the nativity changes have been made to suit both Telugu and Kannada language audience. The Kannada nativity is taken care by Upendra who is minus the moustache in this film.
Celina Jaitley the tall and lanky hot heroine from Mumbai film land is the second heroine in this film. Shaking legs and moving her curvatures will be a treat to watch for the audience. The top Hindi film actor Prem Chopra and Sayyaji Shinde (who appeared in Lava Kusha) are also appearing in this Kannada cinema. For Prem Chopra the 60 plus actor this is his first Kannada entry. From adjacent Andhra Pradesh Kota Srinivasa Rao is also appearing again in a Kannada cinema says director Sampath.
According to Sampath the hero Upendra is having a different image and it will be a different one for him in the professional career.
Upendra pointed the comedy and sentiment elements in the film. The camera work by Johny Lal is for the first time in his film is so good that the rushes give a feel of final output said Upendra. Camera work is the first highlight he explained.
For Johny Lal it has been a come back after 11 years and to work with Upendra it was his long time wish. Johny Lal brother Kabir Lal is also in a Kannada film ‘Cheluveye Ninne Nodalu’ that is shot in Seven Wonders of the World. Johny Lal the maximum films of director Saiprakash is using the super 35 camera and doing the DI technology for the film in Mumbai.
The screen charmer Priyanka Upendra just had to say that she is not a strict wife in real life and so is in the real life.
