While producer Pattabhiram was pointing to the only black mark his Rs.10 crore 'Gandugali Kumara Rama' film received so far Srinivasamurthy draw the attention to that issue. Issuing letters to all the associations and making a statement that he fell down from horse by actor Ashok is absolutely wrong. He did not ride the horse at all. In a Gypsy vehicle a trick shot was arranged for 13 persons. There was a neat and soft seat similar to a bed. There are two persons holding the legs for the safety. When the gypsy is moving the artistes in the costume has to shake his head to give an effect that he is riding a horse. This was the shot arranged and in a curve the gypsy takes a turn and it has slightly lifted Ashok from that comfortable seat and put him back explained Srinivasamurthy.

It is unfortunate that he had problem in his spinal chord and that catapulted the pain for him. But the producer gave the right treatment from the first Aid that was traveling. He was sent to hospital. Immediately cash was given to him for his expenses. Why did he not told the good points Srinivasamurthy shot back sitting under the Neam tree.

A copy of the letter to KFCC, directors association, Producers and Artistes association has made be perturbed says director Bhargava. Now the issue is dead. But the step taken by Ashok in dispatching letter is 'Balisha'. He has asked us to take precaution and also asked for guidance. This is incorrect. Ashok is not walking with a stick in his hand. If he was so precarious why did he come running to banquet hall Vidhana Soudha on the state award evening? He was seen perfectly alright. The reason why I took Ashok is because he was in my first film and I wanted him to be in my 50 th film. Of course he has the perfect physique and diction for this type of film said Bhargava. When I met him twice after this episode I sat with him ate apple and grapes he never clue of writing letter.

Bhargava hitting at his fate did not forget to add that persons like Dr.Rajkumar and Vishnuvardhana also received injuries but they never behaved like Ashok.

Producer Pattabhi feels that he has learnt a lesson from this episode. He has decided to take up insurance for all. Two and half pages letter was not necessary from Ashok said Pattabhi.
