I write this article not to express to everyone that we (Tollywood) have some talented actors. I feel there is no need be. However, I am most upset to see KrishnaVamsy's ineffectual and worthless reply to Mr.Kota Srinivasa Rao. After gone by his hopeless letter, it is proved that KV is in out of mind and talking some nonsense. Here is the proof.
(a) "Kota was found drunk on the sets of Money-Money, hence I decided not to employ him in any of my movies- KrishnaVamsy"
It is known fact that majority of the people in industry behave abnormally on sets. Somebody does it due to heavy dose of liquor, few others do it by playing cards, and many others do it for gals. Where are work ethichs in film industry? It's big joke that KV is talking about as if he was not aware of all these being in film industry. For that matter, once he committed in interview that he and gaddam chakravrthy used to fight for Maheswari on "Gulabi" sets. Don't you call it misbehavior Mr.Vamsy? Krishnavamsy says that the drunken Kota told him that he can act like anything, as director wants. It shows the confidence of a talented actor.
Next comes his favourite pet "Prakash Raj". Undoubtedly, he is one of the talented artistes in south industry. Is his behavior well appreciated among the people in industry? He was thrown from several big star films like "Andhrawala", etc because of his irregular timings onto sets. He was banned couple of times from MAA for various reasons known to everyone. If KV's logic is not to work with the artistes who do not worship the work, Prakashraj shouldn't have been employed in his films. It didn't happen. What do you say Mr.Vamsy? You instead of talking about the person's talents (where as Kota did talk about the talents in indystry in the interview he had given to Eenadu.) are pointing people on the personal ground. This is unfair.
(b) "Kota repeatedly asked me, begged me, forced me for roles in my films-KrishnaVamsy"
Again, this is a big joke. Kota has proved himself an excellent actor by playing wide variety of characters well before you saw the camera for the first time. You better check the roles played by Kota starting from "PratiGhatana"(1985) to "Money"(1994). You started your career almost 10 years later he finished 101 variety roles in his career. I don't think he would have asked you for roles. He was not in that much desparate that times as you think.
Let's analyze your so-called creative characters for which Kota may have run after. The character played by Jeeva in "Gulabi" is nostlagia kind of thing for an actor like Kota since he had done similar kind of roles in films called "Alexander","Gaayam" etc. There was no preference to any of your "Dilwale Dulahaniya." brand characters in Nagarjuna starrer "Ninne Pelladutha". Then comes to your highly acclaimed (by one set of audience) "Sindhooram", can you tell a single charater other than Raviteja's in that film can be said a role that Kota can play for? "Chandralekha", yourself agreed manytimes that you were not interested to direct this as if you never copied anything into your pictures. Then,"Anthapuram". May be this is the film where villan had something to show. "Samudram" villan is nothing but a xerox copy of many Ramgopal varma movies in which Kota excelled. "Murari", totally hero oriented. "Khadgam" is the one again there was not much to play for Kota. So, one can easily guess that Kota would have been happier for not playing "routine" characters of your villans.
Don't think your films are upto the standards of RajKapoor, Govind Nihlani, Sekhar Kapoor, Viswanath, Baapu, Vamsy, Jandhyala, Bharati Raja, Balu Mahendra, Mani Ratnam, for that matter your guru Varma.
Conclusion: Whatever be Kota as a person, he is versatile artiste, defintely much better than the person who got 2 awards in two different categories. More or less, he knows how to talk with public, in public, though he is drunk. In, each and every reponse of him for the interview, he didn't try to criticize you in person (may be as a director). You better change you language when you deal with public. Your reply looked like a fan's pamphlete who normally publish wihthout standards and logic in it. Change yourslef before someone drags you to streets. |
