That is the wish of my father Dr.Rajkumar also. He disclosed that his elder daughter Nirupama has taken up medicine. Since I am also born and brought up in Chennai I know some of the issues taken up there are relevant to the society. Shivanna also patted Tamil film ‘Anniyan’. He has grown beard and that is for the ‘Ashoka’ film shooting. I have been corrected as well as complimented by media he said.Īfter Ashada Masa there is one more surprise that will be announced only then Shivanna smiled. Previously I was very fast in dialogue delivery. I have corrected by diction of Kannada from last eight years. Asked on the assessment of his career Shivanna declined to do so. The story discussion is already in progress. Probably on April 24th 2006 I may produce a different kind of film. I would take up production from next year. They don’t come with the commercial mind with me said Shivanna pointing to producer Kanakapura Srinivas who was present at the media meet. That is one my best films Shivanna opined.Īll my producers have been affectionate. Now Jogi and Valmiki are lined up for release. Last year the sister sentiment has clicked and I am doing one more ‘Thavarina Siri’ for producer Ramu. I have worked very hard for Chiguridha Kanasu taking care of Hindi diction. Films like Janumadha Jodi, Chiguridha Kanasu remains in memory. That’s why I have arrived with ‘Vidhya Dhaana’ with good support from my fans.ĭrawing his attention on the career he said many good films have come to him. If that is what my fans are doing then I thought I should do something in a large scale. The fans association has taken care of nearly four thousand students in Kannada, Hindi, Telugu and Urdu schools of uniform, books, chappals etc. This birthday is special for me because the fans have done Homa, Havana Pooja, cut the cakes and celebrated as if it is their birthday. I would like to live with them, mingle with them and trust them immensely. In the last 20 years of my career many of the producers, technicians and above all my lovable parents have given me encouragement and the fans have shown great respect and affection.

He has decided to identify the needy in the seashore areas and give them education. Kannada superstar Shivrajkumar intends to spread the literacy.
