namaskAra everyone,

Since I am embarassed about not knowing the director of "beLLi mODa", how
about compiling a list of Puttanna kanagal movies (in chronological
order).

I only know about the 4 below

beLLi mODa
gejje pUje
ranganAyaki
mAnasa sarOvara

What about sharapanjara?
Please add to the list. It would be good to include the year of release so
as to see how his style changed with time.

Cheers
Subbu

Here's the Puttanna Kanagal filmography, including films in
other languages:

Poocha Kanni (1966; Malayalam)
Belli Moda (1966)
Mayor Nair (1966; Malayalam)
Swapna Bhoomi (1967; Malayalam)
Teacheramma (1968l Tamil)

Gejje Pooje (1969)
Mallammana Pavada (1969)
Kappu Bilupu (1969)
Karulina Kare (1970)
Sakshathkara (1971)

Sharapanjara (1971)
Naagara Haavu (1972)
Edakalla Guddada Mele (1973)
Zahreela Insaan (1974; Hindi remake of "Naagara Haavu")
Upaasane (1974)

Katha Sangama (1975)
Shubha Mangalam (1975)
College Ranga (1976)
Phalithaamsha (1976)
Paduvarahalli Paandavaru (1978)

Ranganaayaki (1981)
Maanasa Sarovara (1982)
Dharani Mandala Madhyadolage (1983)
Runamukthalu (1984)
Amrutha Galige (1984)

Masanadha Hoovu (1984)

A question: Was there a film of Puttana called
"Dharma----" in the late 70s? (Dharma Asare? Dharma Sere?)

Note: I am not sure of the order of release for films of
a given year. I remember reading somewhere, long ago, that
Puttanna's directrial debut was with a Malayalam film, perhaps
"Poocha Kanni." This film itself is interesting, because it
is based on Malayalam translation of Triveni's "Bekkina Kannu."
I am not sure if the novel has been into a Kannada film.
Another Kannada novel that became a major hit in Malayalam
and became a film is Niranjana's "Chirasmarane." In the same
vein, it is interesting to note that Tha. Raa. Su.'s
"Hamsa Geethe" came to the Hindi screen (as "Basant Bahar")
nearly two decades earlier than it did in Kannada!

Yes, It was "dharma sere" Sometime between 78 - 80.
It is based on J.b. Joshi's novel by the same name.

I think this was 'DharmaSere' with Srinath. Just ok movie based on some old
tradition. I think heroine
was Aarathi.

Just curious. Was it accepted (or shown in titles) that it was based on a
Kannada novel by Tha.Raa.Su ?

In the movie 'masanda hUvu', what role did Padma Vasanthi play? as far as I
remember, role of the young victim was played by Aparna, who is the TV host
now. Other actor/actress in the movie that I can remember are Ambarish and
Jayanthi.
