Ravi Srivatsa rigorous in work, Tiger Galli ready
- IndiaGlitz, [Wednesday,October 11 2017]
Picking the real life incident of 2010 in Chennai and adding more power, thrill and excitement after consultation of mentor KV Raju – here is a swashbuckling cinema from Ravi Srivatsa. He is known for dialogues in the last 24 years and from ‘Deadly Soma’ he shot in to make action potboilers with strong dialogues.
For this ‘Tiger Galli’ the preparation of Ravi Srivatsa for villains in the film Ayyappa, Giriraj, Saikrishna was so strong that three top actors rejected it because their role would be outshine.
Yet Ravi Srivatsa went ahead with Ninasam Satish as he had seen his fire in a small role of ‘Madesha’ for which he worked. After Ninasam Satish confirmed he was in zoom as noted producer MN Kumar gave a helping hand for him to direct the film after four years of exile. Kumar son Yogesh is official producer from this film.
After one year of making and a comeback of this senior writer and swashbuckling director Ravi Srivatsa immensely thanks his Guru KV Raju for giving him a new route to the subject. ‘Novu Spandisone Devru’ (one who holds hands at the painful time is God) Ravi Srivatsa was at his best in giving explanation on his film journey till release. There are 14 characters that sound very well. It is a verbal action cinema laced with politics. The title for this film ‘Peede Sandhi’ coined in later days as ‘Tiger Galli’ in Tigalarpete in Bengaluru was also explained by Ravi Srivatsa.
