- IndiaGlitz, [Monday,July 19 2010]
The path breaking cinema in the commercial arena ÂAÂ in 1999 directed and acted by Upendra his debut as an actor that earned bumper of Rs.20 crores for the investment of Rs.1.25 crores sequel to it ÂA-2Â is getting ready from one of the two producers B Jagannath with his younger brother Dho Basavaraju.
The Kannada film ÂAÂ flagged off by Manirathnam in a grand function that was switched on by an ordinary cinema buff changed the career graph of Upendra.
Now the producers of mega film in Kannada film Jagannath and Basavaraju (there was Majunath BG too as producer) are up to make ÂA-2Â without Upendra, which is startling information.
ÂUpendra does not reach to our limits. For the producers of ÂA who have given a major break for him as an actor you have to seek an appointment to meetÂ, he says is what irked Jagannath and Basavaraju to take up the sequel. ÂFor his thinking and whopping budget we cannot afford alsoÂ, say the siblings Jagannath and Basavaraju speaking to a few media persons on Saturday evening after the briefing of ÂAarbhata Kannada film!
In the sequel to UpendraÂs ÂA will be Roopesh the hero of ÂAgrahara and ÂAarbhataÂ.
It may be recalled it BG Manjunath (not in the scene now) and B Jagannath jointly made ÂAÂ in 1999 at a budget of Rs.1.25 crores. Producer Jagannath still not yet settled his loan of Rs.5 lakh taken from his sister, is the tragedy of his life besides two kidney failure bothering him today.
