Dear Surfers all over the world,

The legendary lyricist and director of Kannada cinema Geethapriya suffering from ill health. The doctor’s diagnosis on his voice box is taking place on Monday. He needs support. You may deposit what you can to Karnataka Film Chamber of Commerce welfare fund.

Director of 27 Kannada films (last film was Shravana Sambrama), Geethapriya directed three Tulu films and one Hindi film Anmol Seethara. He has six audio cassettes , two novels, two plays and over 250 songs to his credit.

To put the whole situation in the song of Geethapriya it is time to say ‘Ellaran Kayo Devre Neenu Elli Kuntithidde….a song he had written in 1975 for Beluvaladha Madilalli in which Rajesh was the protagonist.
