The above pic might give you an impression that this post is going to be an highly emotional one describing about our age old friendship and all that blah blah blah...no thats not this post but am going to reveal a really safeguarded secret that only a few people know.Hey come on like our telugu filmmakers am not boring you with a BASHA kinda flashback.Sorry KRISHNA i am finally letting the cat out of the bag.
Like a lot of children we(krishna and i)were very much fascinated by the world of filmdom.We used to discuss a lot about cinema.I still couldn't the recall the day(may be i was 7 yrs old) KRISHNA came home once with a lot of anxiety and said
"bro lets make a movie...YOU ARE THE HERO AND I AM THE DIRECTOR...i have a story"
i said "lets ROCK".Thus our journey of MAD MAD DREAM WORLD started...We named our banner as KAUTOORI PRODUCTIONS...
Well the story was finalised,which i came to know only after the entire shooting is done and the cast was locked...me being the hero and the rest of the characters will be portrayed by KRISHNA himself...(wow didnt know then bro...u actually bet KAMAL HASSAN'S record)and then started scouting for an apt location for shooting.After a lot of struggle we suddenly realised my room is the desired place for everything...my room became the studio.Then started the shooting without camera,set properties,artistes etc but pure passion.
After making a movie,we decided to make movies continously(i know this is sounding crazy but we were damn serious about that)So whenever either of us got an idea we started developing scripts and started filming...The fate of our films depend completely on KRISHNA.He used to decide whether the movie is hit or flop out of his wish and we promptly followed whatever he said.
After few years SRIVATHSA joined us...The adventures we 3 did together on this might make another post...The passion we have is just incredible...we know its all fake but so seriously worked on this that even the night before our 10th exams we had series of discussions on our next project...
The most hilarious aspect is we used to have press meets on our films and most of our statements used to be very filmy like this...
"story chala differentga untundi...
anni emotions e script ki kudirai...
telugu screen meda rani o point e cinemalo undi...
chala different character...
talkie finish aindi balance songs foreignlo shoot cheali...
technicalga high standardslo untundi...
krishna garu baga direct chestunnaru nannu kottaga chupistunnaru..."blah blah blah
Whenever KRISHNA reminds me of this i burst into laughter like anything...The above incidents are all the heights of craziness.It was then the ultimate passion for us.After my 12th standard our priorities,passions,ambitions,aspirations are all changed but the craziness is till intact...we still love cinema and the movie making...
PS:After posting this i know its going to be very embarassing to face all the readers...am just trying to share all the fun things we had in childhood...thats it...
