Preethi Prema Pranaya
Preethi Prema Pranaya (transl. Love, love, love) is a 2003 Indian Kannada-language drama film written and directed by Kavitha Lankesh. The film features an ensemble cast of Anant Nag, Bharathi Vishnuvardhan, Sudharani, Prakash Raj, Bhavana, Anu Prabhakar and Sunil Raoh. It was produced by "Indo - Hollywood" films, consisting of five producers, namely Mano Murthy, Ram Prasad, Dr. Renuka and Somashekar.[1] The music was composed by Mano Murthy. The film went on to become a musical hit[2] and won many awards including the National Film Award for Best Feature Film in Kannada. The film revolved around three generations of two families having Ananth Nag and Bharathi Vishnuvardhan as first generation. The movie was also an inspiration for 2005 Hindi movie Pyaar Mein Twist. PlotDr. Chandrashekhar (Ananthnag) is a widower with two sons who are also doctors. His first son is Dr. Ashok (Prakash Rai) who has a wife, Jyothi (Sudharani) and son, Vivek (Sunil Rao). His second son is Dr Ajay (Arun Sagar) whose wife is Sheela (Bhavana), an ad professional. The well-settled doctor has a good name and enough fame, but the concern showered on him by his sons irritates him. Their overly cautious behavior suffocates him. He happens to meet Sharadha Devi (Bharathi), a widow, in an accident and as a doctor he does his duty but with 'extra care'. This leads to their friendship and they cannot resist meeting each other with some pretext or the other. He finds the kind of affection, love and care that he needed at his age through this relationship with Sharadha Devi and vice versa. The film takes an enlivening climax when Chandrashekar takes a bold step to face his family members and the society. This demonstrates that every human being needs someone 'who cares for them', 'who listens to them', 'who shares their feelings' no matter what age group they are in. Cast
ProductionFilming for Preethi Prema Pranaya began in January 2003. The film was produced jointly by four NRIs: composer Mano Murthy, singer Ramprasad, Somashekar and Dr Renuka Ramappa under the banner of Indo-Hollywood Creations. Director Kavitha Lankesh stated that the film would try to substantiate that "love is ageless". She added that, "Having a partner in the old age is not new in the US. This is logically justified as the dear ones including sons and daughters keep away from their own parents. The elders feel left in the lurch especially when they live in far off places without anyone looking after them." Producer Ramprasad stated that the film would delve "into the serious issue of having a partner in life to support after he or she becomes a widower or widow."[3] Soundtrack
