Interview with Girish Kasaravalli: Awards are important
There are allegations that you make films just to win awards. Every producer makes a film with an intention of making profits out of it. Awards are important, but you cannot ignore the fact that you have to recover the investments made by the producer. If you think that you can recover your money by winning awards you are wrong. If you see the track record of my films all my films have recovered the producers money. Read On

An interview with Vasundhara Das: Indian Films shy away from reality

I felt like eating well and I did it. After some time I felt I want to stop stuffing myself and I did just that! I live for myself and if people felt I didn't suit the role of an actress, well I have never pointed a gun at anybody and asked them to see my films! Read On

OKC: What is your stand on the trend of writing songs in kanglish? A lot of kannada organizations have been opposing it.
GK: Current generation has a huge effect of English language in their daily lives. It is impossible for me and you to speak kannada with out using a single word in english. How many of the present generation can remember an old kannada song? They may not be able to sing more than a stanza. The tune of the song will be remembered. Not the lyrics. We make music accordingly for the present generation. Read On (Kannada Version)
