Hello, I'm DaxServer. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person on Boyapati Srinu, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you! — DaxServer (talk · contribs) 09:25, 26 January 2022 (UTC)

Masala films

They are not just those with over the top fights. They are those that mix multiple genres (most commonly action, comedy, romance, drama and have song/dance sequences). Please sub-categorise those listed at Category:Masala films. Kailash29792 (talk) 02:20, 2 February 2022 (UTC)

Please do not introduce incorrect information into articles. Your edits could be interpreted as vandalism and have been reverted. If you believe the information you added was correct, please cite references or sources or discuss the changes on the article's talk page before making them again. If you would like to experiment, use your sandbox. You have at least twice used clear/deliberate false and misleading edit summaries, as in here and here, this is DISRUPTIVE VANDALISM. Unless you are looking for a ban you should desist from introducing deliberate errors into articles.

Moreover, your editing behavior (including previously used IPs), shows a lack of understanding towards:

• WP:RS (reliable references) - websites, newspapers, listicles etc. with one-off mentions and no-name writers are not it - books, journals et al from reputed publishers/authors are (further see WP:RSP).
• WP:MOS particularly MOS:LEAD, MOS:LAYOUT, MOS:Words to watch (and also MOS:FILM and WP:ICTF).

Familiarize yourself with the above policies and guidelines before continuing further. And again do not introduce known false edit summaries and edits as you have done. Gotitbro (talk) 11:22, 23 February 2022 (UTC)

Please stop editing this page blindly even though there is a proper source provided. Even though the source states that it is from Tuluva cuisine you have edited blindly. TuluveRai123 (talk) 14:10, 5 March 2022 (UTC)

The link only makes a passing reference. Please provide a more reliable source. Nobody has problem with Tuluvas unlike people saying they require more source to say " Neer" means water in Kannada Kataariveera (talk) 15:39, 5 March 2022 (UTC)

Original research

Hello, Kataariveera. Appreciate your work in cleaning up articles and adding citations. However, please note that this addition is considered is original research as its not explicitly shown in the primary source (ie the film), therefore not allowed. Please add citations to reliable sources to support these statements, else the content may be removed. Thanks and regards -- Ab207 (talk) 14:19, 8 April 2022 (UTC)

Can YouTube video by the director - actor of the movie be cited as reliable source? Kataariveera (talk) 14:26, 8 April 2022 (UTC)

Yes, subject to certain conditions like the follwoing. {{cite AV media}} is available for this purpose.

1. The link should not be a copyright violation per WP:COPYLINK
2. The statements must be attributed to the director per WP:VOICE
3. Excercise caution while writing long passages on them per WP:PRIMARY

Hope this helps -- Ab207 (talk)

Ok.. Thanks for these links. I will go through it and abide by these Kataariveera (talk) 15:40, 8 April 2022 (UTC)

Please stop citing non reliable source as you did at K.G.F: Chapter 2 and List of highest-grossing Indian films TuluveRai123 (talk) 16:17, 8 May 2022 (UTC)

Tollywood.net not in the list of irreliable source. If yes, please show the link Kataariveera (talk) 16:30, 8 May 2022 (UTC)

Hello Kataariveera, it is suggested to not add any kind of information from improper (or atleast unreliable according wikipedia's policy) sites such as Tollywood.net, Sacnlik.com, Koimoi, etc. As you asked for the link, you can go to the discussion page of Indian cinema task force. I understand that only saclink and Koimoi were only cited as unrelaible over there. If you wish to add Tollywood.net as one of the reliable sources, then you can start a discusion regarding that. Until and unless it is added in the list, you are not allowed to it as a source in any of the wikipedia's article, etc.... Jayanthkumar123 (talk) 3:15, 9 May 2022 (UTC)

Translation

Can you translate this (ನವೀನ್ ಕುಮಾರ್ ಬರೆದ ‘ಚಳಿಯಾಗ್ತಿದೆ.. ’ ಹಾಡನ್ನು ಆಶಿಕಿ ಚಿತ್ರದ ಟೈಟಲ್ ಸಾಂಗ್ ರಾಗದಲಿದೆ). Does it mean something like: "Naveen Kumar wrote the song "Chaliyagtide", which reused the title theme of Aashiqui 2". This information is from Bombay Mittai (2015 film)#Soundtrack from this source. DareshMohan (talk) 06:21, 16 August 2022 (UTC)

Partially right - exact translation would be - " The song "Chaliyaagtide" written by Naveen Kumar re-uses the tune of the title track of Aashiqui 2"..

It is true that the song in Bombay Mithai parodies the " Kyukni tum hi ho" sequence and hence borrowed/ copied that tune Kataariveera (talk) 14:21, 16 August 2022 (UTC)

Yash

Is Yash's name "Lakshmikanth" in his first movie? DareshMohan (talk) 22:25, 27 August 2022 (UTC)

Yes.. Correct.. It's "Lakshmikanth"... Kataariveera (talk) 05:17, 28 August 2022 (UTC)

Name

Is Nagendra Prasad's name in this movie "Anand"? DareshMohan (talk) 04:42, 29 August 2022 (UTC)

No.. "Anand" is his friend's name who is seated beside him & crying. Prasad's name in the movie is "Sandesh". You can listen at 10:38 in the same clip ( where he is referred as " Sandesha") Kataariveera (talk) 17:17, 29 August 2022 (UTC)

Translation

What does "Naanu Nanna Kanasu" mean is it "I am my dream"? DareshMohan (talk) 23:56, 1 September 2022 (UTC)

Literal translation - "Naanu" - I/Me/Myself ; "Nanna Kanasu" - " My Dream". So, it can be considered as " Me & My Dream" or " I & My Dream" - whichever is grammatically more correct. However, please do note that the lead character's daughter's name is also Kanasu ( so the title is actually meant to denote the daughter as well as "dream" - so "Kanasu" is used in the title to mean both).. The original "Abhiyum Naanum" means " Abhi & I" ( Abhi is daughter's name) ... So " Naanu Nanna Kanasu" can be " I & my dream" as well as " Me & my daughter Kanasu"...

Kataariveera (talk) 03:19, 2 September 2022 (UTC)

Name

Have you seen this movie - Kasu Iddone Basu (1). Is Jaggesh's character named "Basu"? DareshMohan (talk) 17:31, 2 September 2022 (UTC)

No.. the word "Basu" in the title doesn't represent a name ( like in Anurag Basu) rather it's pronounced as 'Baasu' which is the Kannada slang for "Boss" ( Boss became "Boss u" who should have been written as "Baasu" but eventually "Basu" was used). "Kaasu" means "money". "Kaasu Iddone Basu" means "Guy with money is the Boss". If "Basu" is confusing, using the spelling "Baasu" may also be appropriate but in any case it is not the character name.

Translation

What does "(ಸ್ನೇಹ ಸೇತು : ವಿಜಯಕರ್ನಾಟಕ)" mean is it "(Original Source: Vijaya Karnataka")"? DareshMohan (talk) 05:10, 12 September 2022 (UTC)

Also, have you seen Honeymoon Express? Is the article correct on who plays "Soumya" and "Ramya"? Who played "Latha"? DareshMohan (talk) 07:25, 12 September 2022 (UTC)

"Sneha" means "Friendship" and " Setu" Means "Bridge". So, sneha setu means " bridge of friendship ".

I ll get back on Honeymoon Express Kataariveera (talk) 14:42, 16 September 2022 (UTC)

The article mentions correctly - Deepu played Ramya and Santoshi played Sowmya. I don't remember anyone with the name "Latha" in the movie. However, there is a character called "Laila". Kataariveera (talk) 16:01, 16 September 2022 (UTC)

The article mentions correctly that Deepu played Ramya and Santoshi played Soumya. In the article, didn't find reference to "Latha", however there is a character called "Laila" And i am unaware who played that role Kataariveera (talk) 16:06, 16 September 2022 (UTC)

Kannada films

Hi trying to watch some Kannada films. If you don't mind could you recommend some good ones (old movies are fine). Also trying to watch Prasad (2012 film), do you know if it released on any OTT? DareshMohan (talk) 18:15, 18 September 2022 (UTC)

Of course.. I would suggest you to Watch those on Amazon - for the recent ones and those those on YouTube ( preferably those with subtitles ). If your internation is to learn the language, I suggest you to watch the following 2 old movies ( due to clarity in speech and most of the non-Kamnadigas were ok with these) Kataariveera (talk) 16:23, 19 September 2022 (UTC)

Halu Jenu (with subtitles) - Tragicomedy from 80s Beladingala Bale ( without subtitles) - Romantic comedy from 90s Kataariveera (talk) 16:25, 19 September 2022 (UTC)

Please note that both these movies are old but enjoyable if watched with patience.

Other movies on YouTube with English subtitles:

Mungaru Male - Romantic Kendasampige - Thriller ( low budget but worthy watch) Ulidavaru Kandante ( noir style) Ondu Motteya Kathe - comedy: Kataariveera (talk) 16:26, 19 September 2022 (UTC)

Movies on Amazon: Above Average:

Birbal Trilogy (investigate thriller) Gantumoote ( coming of age) Dia ( romantic tragedy) Love Mocktail (romantic) Kavaludaari (thriller) Avane Srimannarayana ( fantasy) Mayabazaar 2016 ( comedy) Harivu (drama) Urvi ( drama) Seetharam Benoy: Case No. 18( thriller) Rathnan Prapancha ( emotional drama)

Average : Geetha ( romantic) Katheyondu Shuruvagide ( romantic) Act 1978 ( hostage thriller) Nanna Prakaara ( murder mystery) Arishadvarga ( mystery) Kannad Gothilla ( thriller ) Ondalla Eradalla ( drama) Vrithra (thriller) Ondu Shikariya Kathe ( drama) Kapata Nataka Patradhari (horror) Devaki ( thriller)

Please let me know which you liked/disliked - since it will help to recommend to others. I am not aware where "Prasad" is available - maybe Sunnext Kataariveera (talk) 16:26, 19 September 2022 (UTC)

Bro, thank you so much. It might take a while to watch all these movies :) Dia was amazing. DareshMohan (talk) 07:33, 14 October 2022 (UTC)

My pleasure. If possible, do watch "Kantara" in theatres - amazing experience. Kataariveera (talk) 13:27, 14 October 2022 (UTC)

Hi, bro. Just want to say that the movie "Kantara" was mind-blowing and that Kannada cinema has a bright future. DareshMohan (talk) 09:15, 2 January 2023 (UTC)

Thnx for your appreciation Kataariveera (talk) 16:35, 2 January 2023 (UTC)

Bro if possible can you list your top five movies. DareshMohan (talk) 03:09, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

From the above list or overall? Even in overall, unless you tell the era & genre, difficult to tell only 5. Kataariveera (talk) 07:35, 24 July 2023 (UTC)

@Kataariveera: Comedy films released during 2000s. DareshMohan (talk) 18:29, 24 July 2023 (UTC)

Can be suggested - problem is 2000s was the worst era for Kannada. There were lot of remakes. Also not sure whether they will be available on OTT or with subtitles though there are chances of finding them on YouTube Still I suggest the following:

Rama Shyama Bhama

Galate Aliyandru

Kodandarama

Ramakrishna

(Unfortunately all are remakes)

But if you are really wanting good comedy movies in Kannada, I suggest the following before 2000s

Gauri Ganesha

Inspector Vikram

Kalyana Mantapa

Mavanige Takka Aliya

Bhagyada Lakshmi Baramma

Ganeshana Maduve Kataariveera (talk) 14:03, 29 July 2023 (UTC)

If you are okay with romantic comedies of 2000s, i suggest the following:

Arasu

Milana

Raam (remake)

Datta

Mungaru Male

Dhool (remake)

Ullasa Utsaha (remake)

Chellata (remake)

Krishna

Romeo

Sundaraanga Jaana (remake)

Krishnaleela

Aishwarya

By the way, in my earlier reply I forgot the following from 2000s:

Kothigalu Saar Kothigalu

Only Vishnuvardhana

(these 2 are better choices) Kataariveera (talk) 14:32, 29 July 2023 (UTC)

Thanks anna. I will watch these movies and hopefully learn Kannada. Daredevil Musthafa, Ugramm, Only Vishnuvardhana are good movies. ♪ 1 2 3 4 Vishnuvardhana ♪ nanage kannada basha jothe ondu connection. DareshMohan (talk) 18:35, 31 July 2023 (UTC)

In few weeks, Aachar & Co might be released on Amazon Prime (currently in theatres). Watch that too. In fact, anytime you have doubt whether a Kannada movie is watchable or no, just ping me. I will let you know. Kataariveera (talk) 02:22, 1 August 2023 (UTC)

How watchable are Just Maath Maathalli and Raajakumara. Can u suggest some movies of Kichcha Sudeepa, Sriimurali and Radhika Kumaraswamy. DareshMohan (talk) 18:54, 4 August 2023 (UTC)

Just Maat Maatalli is a good movie but very very slow and may not be liked by all. However, climax is good. Rajakumara first half is average but the second half is thoroughly engaging, emotional & entertaining. Shrimurali has only 3 good movies [Chandrachakori, Ugramm, Mufti] and 2 average movie a [Rathavara, Yashwanth] in his career. Sudeep's good movies are mostly remakes[Huchcha,Valee, My Autograph, No.73 Shanthinivas, Kempegowda,Maanikya,Mukunda Murari]. His non remake good movies [Vishnuvardhana,Kotigobba2, Mussanjemathu, Bachchan] are very few. Radhika Kumarswamy's good movies are - Ninagagi, Tavarige Baa Thangi, Rishi. Kataariveera (talk) 15:54, 7 August 2023 (UTC)

How are Karvva, Kirik Party and Ondu Motteya Kathe? Can u suggest some movies of Raj B. Shetty, Rakshit Shetty and Rishab Shetty (already seen Kantara). DareshMohan (talk) 01:17, 11 August 2023 (UTC)

All 3 movies - Karva, Kirik Party & Ondu Motteya Kathe are worth watching. All movies of Rakshit Shetty in lead roles are conceptually different and are good except Vastuprakara and Ricky. Raj B Shetty worth watching movies where he is a lead are OMK, Garuda Gamana Vrushubha Vahana (GGVV) and Mayabazaar 2016. Rishab's good movies as lead actor are Kantara & Bell Bottom. Kataariveera (talk) 17:22, 14 August 2023 (UTC)

I felt that OMK was slow (only saw beginning 10 minutes). Does it get faster or interesting? DareshMohan (talk) 04:00, 15 August 2023 (UTC)

It is slow moving. It does get interesting though the tempo remains the same. Kataariveera (talk) 02:33, 16 August 2023 (UTC)

Kantara

Hello/Namaskara, thanks for your active edits on Kantara article. Ther Box-office section is getting over-detailed, there is a discussion at Talk:Kantara_(film)#Box_office_chapter_too_long. Have a look. If you have any question, please let me here or on my talk page. Thanks. --Titodutta (talk) 19:15, 4 November 2022 (UTC)

Some baklava for you!

Great job Kataariveera! You have done a good job by dividing 'Box Office' into sub-sections. Ps103ankit (talk) 04:32, 7 November 2022 (UTC)

Kataariveera, please read article carefully

• Kataariveera, I think you haven't read the article carefully. No problem, it happens with everyone. Actually, I hadn't added the article as the source for box office numbers, it was someone else who did that. I already checked the article and I found that Rs.344 crore is the gross collection in India and Rs.33 crore is the gross collection from overseas, so the total collection is Rs.377 crore. This article in pinkvilla is mainly talking about the collections in India, but has also mentioned the collections from overseas.
• This is an excerpt from the article --

                                 "The total box office collections of the film in India are nearing Rs. 350 crores, with Rs. 344 crores to date. It has grossed another $4 million (Rs. 33 crores) overseas, for a worldwide total of Rs. 377 crores, possibly targeting Rs. 400 crores at the end of its run."

• If you find something wrong here, then please tell me. I will rectify that.
• Also, thanks for your contributions in Kantara (film) article till now. Ps103ankit (talk) 17:37, 18 November 2022 (UTC)

Translation

Can you fix the translation of Kwatle Satisha? DareshMohan (talk) 05:00, 19 December 2022 (UTC)

"Kwatle" is rightly translated as mischievous. Alternatively, you can check whether the word "impish" can be used. Kataariveera (talk) 16:31, 19 December 2022 (UTC)

Does Manasella Neene mean "You are all over my mind"? DareshMohan (talk) 19:31, 19 December 2022 (UTC)

Yes that would be better. Literal translation in the order of Kannada words be "Mind is full of you". However, I suggest " You are all over my mind " [ though technically speaking, the Kannada phrase doesn't say "my mind" it is implied to be "my mind" and not someone else's] So - " You are all over my mind " Would be the right phrase. Kataariveera (talk) 02:04, 20 December 2022 (UTC)

Thanks bro. It's astounding that in Tamil it is Manasellam Neeye. DareshMohan (talk) 09:08, 20 December 2022 (UTC)

Review

Hi, can you add the contents of this review (since you know Kannada) to Draft:Shubham. It says ಸ್ನೇಹ ಸೇತು : ವಿಜಯ ಕರ್ನಾಟಕ. Does it mean it is from Vijaya Karnataka? DareshMohan (talk) 08:27, 21 December 2022 (UTC)

Another doubt, critic R. G. Vijayasarathy wrote two reviews for many Kannada films. Usually one for Nowrunning and then one for Rediff, is there a reason why he did that? Interestingly, both reviews are worded differently.

Yes, it means "courtesy:Vijaya Karnataka". However, since the link is for filmibeat website, I am not sure whether it can be used as source. Let me know if you are absolutely sure that we can use it, after which I shall translate & update the draft. Kataariveera (talk) 15:05, 24 December 2022 (UTC)

R G Vijayasarathy was a highly respected critic who was non hesitant to call spade a spade. Maybe he felt it is not ethical to give same review to 2 websites and earn money from both. Hence maybe since he received remuneration from both, he wrote 2 reviews. Kataariveera (talk) 15:08, 24 December 2022 (UTC)

No need to translate because the draft was rejected. R G Vijayasarathy seems to be popular but if he did not write any full length books and only film reviews, then it is hard to make an article on him. Found this but nothing at all before his death. DareshMohan (talk) 09:21, 2 January 2023 (UTC)

You rarely come across articles about Kannada film reviewers because they are mostly film journalists and nobody writes specifically about them. It's also difficult to find source material to make an article on them. Kataariveera (talk) 16:28, 2 January 2023 (UTC)

Mr. Mommaga

Can you add the full cast names from the movie? add this guy. DareshMohan (talk) 08:15, 11 January 2023 (UTC)

Added the notable ones instead of adding all. Also added the guy you cliped. His name is Satyajith. Kataariveera (talk) 15:28, 12 January 2023 (UTC)

There are multiple vandalism attempt on the article, kindly help in maintaining the originality and unbiased nature of the article Apracv1 (talk) 17:35, 29 January 2023 (UTC)

Done.. The actor's fans will continue to do so for few more days. We will have to be vigilant. Kataariveera (talk) 16:02, 30 January 2023 (UTC)

Raaj - The Showman

Please move the page to this title (name per most sources). Can you confirm Sathish Ninasam role in Madesha - movie link timestamp. I thought his role was "Sarkar (Ramesh Pandith's) henchman" but his article says "Ramana". DareshMohan (talk) 10:37, 7 March 2023 (UTC)

Yes... He is the henchman but his character might be having a name. Tried to find it. Couldn't get it Kataariveera (talk) 14:40, 7 March 2023 (UTC)

Translation

Can you add translation to Chandra Chakori. DareshMohan (talk) 00:19, 10 March 2023 (UTC)

Chandrachakori is a patridge (a kind of bird) which is enamored of the soon. Kataariveera (talk) 02:44, 10 March 2023 (UTC)

Edited "Chandrachakori" meaning. It should have been moon { I typed soon due to typo}

Chandra = Moon

Chakori = Patridge bird Kataariveera (talk) 12:21, 11 March 2023 (UTC)

Box office

Was Kanti (film) a box office failure. This source says 14 flops, which includes Kanti. Although the source contradicts itself by saying that Kanti was a hit. DareshMohan (talk) 11:49, 11 March 2023 (UTC)

Kanti was a hit - just average though. Not a flop Kataariveera (talk) 12:14, 11 March 2023 (UTC)

It was average. Here is the article

Sri Kshetra Adichunchanagiri (2012)

Can you help me translate this review? The full film is on YouTube. Can you find the name of Ambareesh, Ramkumar and Shivakumar characters? Is this translation accurate? DareshMohan (talk) 10:45, 12 March 2023 (UTC)

The translation is reasonably good except for few words like "self congratulations" wrongly used instead or a better word "self glorification". Similarly, instead of "Vapti" use "boundaries". The phrase " story of his birth in the monastery courtyard" should be " story of the monastery" and in place where "not surprising" is used, it should have been "not engaging".

I will add the names of the characters at the earliest. Kataariveera (talk) 12:17, 12 March 2023 (UTC)

Great, the article is Sri Kshetra Adi Chunchanagiri. It seems that Ramkumar had the most screen time (appears in second half). DareshMohan (talk) 10:23, 15 March 2023 (UTC)

Yeah good... I will name the characters once I see it. I suppose the review section can be expanded since there is only one source. Kataariveera (talk) 11:47, 15 March 2023 (UTC)

Yashwanth (2005)

I need help finding sources for this film (Kannada sources are fine too). These are the only sources that I found. DareshMohan (talk) 10:21, 15 March 2023 (UTC)

This source has all the details correctly though it will not fall under "reliable" category of wiki standards.

https://kannadamoviesinfo.wordpress.com/2013/10/20/yashwanth-2005/

Then, check whether this article link from Archives of Deccan Herald is opening. If yes, you have a reliable source:

http://archive.deccanherald.com/Deccanherald/feb062005/mr3.asp Kataariveera (talk) 11:44, 15 March 2023 (UTC)

Thanks, man. Sadly, I am unable to open that link. I am able to open this link https://web.archive.org/web/20071220011411/http://www.deccanherald.com/archives/feb062005/movies.asp but not your link. Is it possible to get the contents of the film review? If not, at least there is a reliable review. DareshMohan (talk) 23:30, 15 March 2023 (UTC)

Sorry... No source other than viggy. Kataariveera (talk) 14:48, 16 March 2023 (UTC)

There is this source. What's your role in Yashwanth? I play Rakshita's mom in it. I am a very strict mother, and the daughter's over-protected. In fact, she calls me Hitler at one point in the movie! It's a love story, between Rakshita and Murali. In the movie, I have a brother who fools me, and has designs on my daughter. The same man is also responsible or my separation from my husband. Although I can't create the article without the Deccan Herald review. @Kailash29792: Can you save the review (http://archive.deccanherald.com/Deccanherald/feb062005/mr3.asp)?

Can you find Deccan Herald reviews for Shambhu (2005) and Gopi (2006)? DareshMohan (talk) 01:50, 18 March 2023 (UTC)

The Deccan Herald reviews are in archives but unfortunately not opening. It cannot be seen or saved. Here is for Gopi:

Here is for Shambu:

If not why not go with Nowrunning given by senior reporter Vijaysarathi :

https://www.nowrunning.com/movie/2560/kannada/shambu/606/review.htm Kataariveera (talk) 16:01, 18 March 2023 (UTC)

Given that their is two reviews (Rediff - 1 2) and one is not viewable (Deccan Herald), do you think these films are still article worthy? I feel like prioritizing Shambhu because it has another review (1). The issue is that I need help finding sources.

Can you find any Deccan Herald reviews for Aadi (2005), Hettavara Kanasu (2006), Good Luck (2006) and Shree (2006)? DareshMohan (talk) 04:07, 21 March 2023 (UTC)

1. Both Shambu & Gopi are not worthy (except that Gopi is a remake of Mahesh Babu movie Murari).

2. Deccan Herald reviews - links avaliable in archives but they are not readable. So you wont be able to use DC for old movies. Suggest you to look for alternatives.

3. Finding reliable sources for older movies is a difficult task. Kataariveera (talk) 16:53, 21 March 2023 (UTC)

Okay, no problem. One doubt is Shambu a remake of Thirumalai (2003)? The Nowrunning and Rediff reviews mention the film as "Tirumalai". Can I consider the Nowrunning and Rediff reviews as two different reviews (bothe reviews are written by R. G. Vijayasarathy although the content is different)? Along with the Indiaglitz and dead-link Deccan Herald review, that is four reviews in total. DareshMohan (talk) 09:07, 24 March 2023 (UTC)

Shambu is not a remake. Kannada movies of 2000s had a bad habit of copying 2 or 3 sequences from Tamil & Telugu movies. Same was the case with Shambhu. It cannot be considered as remake.

Nowrunning & Rediff can be considered as 2 separate reviews since the wordings are totally different (though by same person). You can consider all 4 reviews. Kataariveera (talk) 14:28, 24 March 2023 (UTC)

Can you include the Deccan Herald review for Green Signal (2005)? Per this (WP:V), Do not reject reliable sources just because they are difficult or costly to access. Some reliable sources are not easily accessible. DareshMohan (talk) 06:10, 31 March 2023 (UTC)

Could not find the link brother Kataariveera (talk) 14:17, 31 March 2023 (UTC)

Draft:Shree (2006 film) failed to become an article. Include the Deccan Herald review link if possible. I understand that "Finding reliable sources for older movies is a difficult task" and I appreciate your hard work. DareshMohan (talk) 08:58, 17 April 2023 (UTC)

First and foremost a big shoutout to you for taking the time to respond. Based on my past experience, the presence of the Deccan Herald review and the fact that there are four plus reviews in total, it will be enough. DareshMohan (talk) 21:53, 17 April 2023 (UTC)

Glad if it is helping your efforts. Kataariveera (talk) 13:28, 18 April 2023 (UTC)

Task

I know this is a huge task but could you help add Rajesh Krishnan's Kannada songs from 1990s, 2000s to his page. I think the best approach would be to create an article called List of Kannada songs sung by Rajesh Krishnan if the list is too long. DareshMohan (talk) 03:34, 21 March 2023 (UTC)

I ll first add songs. If it is too long, it can be moved to separate page. Kataariveera (talk) 16:47, 21 March 2023 (UTC)

Rishab Shetty

What is his role in Tuglak? He appears in this song at 0:42 seconds. DareshMohan (talk) 08:57, 24 March 2023 (UTC)

He plays an unnamed character in that movie Kataariveera (talk) 14:23, 24 March 2023 (UTC)

Major doubt

Please clear this doubt is Sidhant Mohapatra in Gowri Kalyana (1991) here (credited as Harshavardhan)?

It is not him, right (face looks very different)? Anyways, who is this Harshavardhan, did he act in any other film? DareshMohan (talk) 19:09, 2 April 2023 (UTC)

There is a high chance of him being Siddhanth - though face cut does look different. Director Dwarkish who had a rift with Vishnuvardhan introduced an Odia actor (name not known) & renamed him Harshavardhan as a competition and did this movie. However, the movie flopped & Harshavardhan never acted in any Kannada movie. The hero is having moustache because it is the trend in Kannada to have moustache for hero. All major lead actors have it - except Shivarajkumar & Puneeth. Check for old movies of Mohapatra for any scene where he has moustache. Also the heroine of this movie Nithya is said to be Malayalam actress Maria who became famous for soft porn. Check from that angle too. Kataariveera (talk) 14:57, 3 April 2023 (UTC)

Thanks. I took your word for it. He has a mustache in this film. It looks like for the Kannada film, they changed his appearance to make him look like a hero (his cheeks, earlobes look different). DareshMohan (talk) 08:04, 4 April 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for the video. I can confirm it is him - yes they have changed the appearance slightly to make him look more of a hero material Kataariveera (talk) 14:22, 4 April 2023 (UTC)

omg, did a intense check and just noticed that they did not approve of his ears that stick out and decided to give him new ears and a wig. only his signature mustache gives it away. Interestingly many Odia people don't know this. Check the comments here. DareshMohan (talk) 08:44, 13 December 2023 (UTC)

Then maybe its not him. We might be misguiding through Wikipedia. I believe Odia people are better ones to judge. Should that information be removed until we get more clarifications? Kataariveera (talk) 12:47, 13 December 2023 (UTC)

Yup, I added it & I deleted it. I feel bad for misinforming public. DareshMohan (talk) 19:47, 13 December 2023 (UTC)

You should not feel bad. This is how we evolve and correct ouurselves. Now this happened, we will be more careful next time. Kataariveera (talk) 01:51, 14 December 2023 (UTC)

I found out who he is. He is Vishwas from Neerajanam. Let's go! DareshMohan (talk) 04:56, 21 March 2024 (UTC)

This is massive... Congrats for clearing the confusion!👌🏼 Kataariveera (talk) 15:42, 21 March 2024 (UTC)

I was also told that he acted in Aha Naa Pellanta (comedy movie) as Kota Srinivasa Rao's son. [1] [2] [3] DareshMohan (talk) 06:41, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

Nice... but how were u able to find all these? Great job! Kataariveera (talk) 14:12, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

The second movie was from a YouTube comment. Thanks for encouragement. DareshMohan (talk) 22:55, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

Hi... You are right. The guy's name is Vishwas. Recently, Gauri Kalyana producer Dwarakish expired. In this article, he mentions about how he changed Vishwas' name to Harshavardhan for "Gowri Kalyana". He says Vishwas was a " shuttlecock champion".

Translation

What is Neene Neene - is it something to do with "you"? DareshMohan (talk) 06:54, 11 April 2023 (UTC)

"Neene" is the colloquial form of "Neenu" which means "You". " Neene" is used mostly to denote "Only You". Eg. " Neene beku" means "I want only you" [beku = want]. "Neene baa" means "You only come" [baa = come]. Kataariveera (talk) 02:16, 12 April 2023 (UTC)

What is the translation of "Ide, illeno samasye ide"? DareshMohan (talk) 00:37, 18 April 2023 (UTC)

"There is some problem here"..

Exact traslation: " There is, here there is some problem".

Ide = There is

Illeno = Illi + Eno = Here + Some

Samasye = Problem Kataariveera (talk) 13:26, 18 April 2023 (UTC)

Site

What website is this? Is it by a fan of Vishnuvardhan. DareshMohan (talk) 03:43, 16 April 2023 (UTC)

Fan made website. Do not use it to rely on reviews - which will be biased. However, it can be used to gather information on technical crew. Kataariveera (talk) 03:48, 16 April 2023 (UTC)

Lacking

I noticed that many Kannada films of early 2000s lacking articles like Bisi Bisi (2004). If you see any Kannada film (pre-2020) with 2+ reliable reviews, please tell me. DareshMohan (talk) 09:56, 20 April 2023 (UTC)

Sure... I will post them in this as reply Kataariveera (talk) 17:17, 20 April 2023 (UTC)

My edits

Sorry for my edits on Baashha, Hum (film), Soma (1996 film) and Kotigobba. Upon closer inspection of Soma (1996 film) given that it has a sister scene from Baashha and a similar autokaaran song, it looks like it is based on Baashha and not Hum. DareshMohan (talk) 00:12, 22 April 2023 (UTC)

Agreed. Changed the article accordingly. You are free to modify it further. Kataariveera (talk) 08:48, 22 April 2023 (UTC)

Are you sure that Baashha was inspired by Hum (film)? Have you seen both films? See the responses to this. Other than "Bombay don in exile theme", "brother/sister sentiment", and "hidden past" was there any similarities? This might be an example of Wikipedia:Citogenesis. Based on the Baashha article, the film is based on a discussed scene of Hum (film) that was not filmed. Baashha also does not have the scenes at the dock like Hum (film) does. DareshMohan (talk) 00:18, 23 April 2023 (UTC)

Thats the reason the wordings used is based on/adapted / inspired and not copied or remake. Apart from the 3 plot points mentioned by you, here are few more similarities:

and

d) Hero taking up small time work (farming/auto) to hide his past.

e) Inspector brother

f) The look & getup of the villain (Bhaktavar/ Mark Anthony) in the second half

g) The guys who actually ransack villain 's home & kill his wife putting the blame on the hero.

h) The villain believing the words of that guy & deciding to take revenge once he is out of the jail

i)Kidnapping female family member of the hero by the villain in the climax.

j) The telephone sequence - where the villain calls & asks the family member to hand over the phone to hero referring to his old name (Tiger /Baashha) and the family member telling wrong number

k) Inspector Brother blaming the hero's past acts

l) Female family member - who is aware of the hero past - explaining the sacrifices of the hero to brother

Hence it is clear , the movie isn't a copy - I am against calling it a remake. But saying the movie is not at all based/inspired also seems wrong - since there are characters, plot points, get up, sequences which are similar. You are free to change the choice of words - loosely based on/ inspired / adapted - whichever you want. But, I feel one among these has to be used considering the similarities existing. Kataariveera (talk) 07:30, 23 April 2023 (UTC)

Sri Manjunatha (film)

Why is the article portraying it as a Telugu film? Saw the film here on YouTube and surprised that 90% of it was dubbed from Kannada. Only scenes involving Chiranjeevi-Meena, Tanikella Bharani and Brahmanandam have been reshot. Most of the film (Arjun-Soundarya-Ambareesh, other actors - most of the film) has been shot in Kannada only. DareshMohan (talk) 11:01, 24 April 2023 (UTC)

Sri Manjunatha is a Kannada film which was partially reshot in Telugu. At that point of time, there was an unofficial ban in Kannada for dubbing movies from other languages. So, it has to be Kannada only. They couldn't have dubbed the movie in Kannada. The lead actors - Arjun & Soundarya - and other actors like Ambarish are also Kannada actors. However, it is potrayed as Telugu because the director is Telugu, Chiranjeevi in an important role , Arjun - Soundarya are also known in Telugu & partially reshot scenes. However, I argue it is a Kannada movie because it was majorly shot in Kannada. The story is about a devotee of Koti Lingeshwara in Karnataka. Technicians like music director Hamsalekha, cameraman Sundarnath Suvarna & editor R Janardhan are all from Kannada industry only. Kataariveera (talk) 15:22, 24 April 2023 (UTC)

Raghuveer's "Chaitrada Premanjali" was ready for release but no theatres were willing to exhibit the movie citing hero was not good looking. Ultimately, with the intervention of producer Ramu, who evinced interest in the movie, theatre owners agreed to exhibit the movie until Amitabh Bachchan's "Khuda Gawah" releases. However, soon after the release, the movie struck gold & started seeing housefull shows due to which Amitabh Bachchan 's movie had to delay its release in Karnataka by one month. Subsequently,when Raghuveer's second movie "Shrungara Kavya" was ready for release, distributors thronged to purchase the movie. However, Raghuveer who had faced insult earlier refused to sell the rights to people who had rejected him earlier. Kataariveera (talk) 15:11, 26 April 2023 (UTC)

Aadi (2005)

I have this source. The film released on 2 March 2005. Please include the broken Deccan Herald review link. DareshMohan (talk) 03:54, 29 April 2023 (UTC)

Couldnt find Deccan Herald link. However, there is one by Vijayasarathy from nowrunning.com. You might be aware now that he was the only one who used to write Kannada movie reviews in English regularly. Please note in the following link, though on top it is wrongly written as "Aadi Telugu movie review" and the link also wrongly classified under "Telugu", the review is of Kannada movie Aadi. Please go through the matter for your reference.

Thank you so much! Last time I came about this I saw the word Telugu and thought that it was for the Telugu film. Quick question, is this book written by R. G. Vijayasarathy, there is some letter before his name on the book?

Also, can you find any archived Screen (magazine)/reliable review for Sri Ram (film)? The article is currently undergoing deletion. DareshMohan (talk) 10:10, 30 April 2023 (UTC)

The letter written before his name is "Le:" - short form for "Lekhaka:" - meaning author. Basically it was written:

Author: R G Vijayasarathy.

And unfortunately, could not find any review of Sriram movie. Kataariveera (talk) 14:44, 30 April 2023 (UTC)

Can you find the Screen (magazine)/Deccan Herald/any reliable review for Don (2003 film)? I am trying to create the article. DareshMohan (talk) 22:21, 16 August 2023 (UTC)

Can you help with this translation: The muhurat of the film was held at Sree Kailasa Vaikunta Mahakshetra Temple in Rajajinagar. Sharan, the producer of this film, also produced Kullara Lok (2002) and Dr. B. R. Ambedkar (2005). Poojari is broken down into Poo, which means worship, ja, which means learning jataka and ri, which means repair. Similar to the films Om and Shastri where brahmin boys become villains, in this film the lead character uses a machete. DareshMohan (talk) 22:54, 11 July 2023 (UTC)

what is the meaning of Lift Kodla? DareshMohan (talk) 21:34, 19 July 2023 (UTC)

"Lift" is the colloquial for dropping a person in vehicle. "Kodla" means "shall I give?"

So, "Lift Kodla?" means "Shall I drop you?" Kataariveera (talk) 15:06, 20 July 2023 (UTC)

This is Adi Lokesh - a name not easily recognizable unless we say he is "Bidda" from the blockbuster "Jogi" for which he won ETV - Vatika "Best Villain " award. Now he is becoming a hero.

Remaining portion has been correctly translated.only addition is that the breakdown of the word "Poojari" was given by dialogue writer Keshava Adithya according to the article. Kataariveera (talk) 15:16, 20 July 2023 (UTC)

I like thrillers , horror and black comedy- Thegidi, D16 (Dhuruvangal Padhinaru), Pizza, Soodu Kaavum, Jigarthanda, Kolamaavu Kokila and sensible commercial action films like Thuppakki, Ayan, Sardar, Kaththi, Thani Oruvan and Maanadu. Kataariveera (talk) 05:10, 29 August 2023 (UTC)

Have you seen Maayavan, Chaarulatha, and Vellai Pookal? I found them all scary lol. DareshMohan (talk) 04:44, 30 August 2023 (UTC)

Yes.. Charulatha initially was started as a Kannada movie only. I have seen that and loved it. Watch the original Thai version. Maayavan and Vellai Pookal were good but I liked Ratchasan more Kataariveera (talk) 12:57, 6 September 2023 (UTC)

Where

Where is Chiru in Happy New Year (2017 film)? [5] DareshMohan (talk) 19:14, 26 August 2023 (UTC)

He isnt there in this song. Kataariveera (talk) 03:39, 27 August 2023 (UTC)

Doubt

Is Chandramukhi 2 [6] a remake of Aptharakasha? DareshMohan (talk) 18:37, 4 September 2023 (UTC)

Mostly yes but will wait for the movie to release. It looks like its remake though Kataariveera (talk) 16:18, 6 September 2023 (UTC)

Request

Can you add info on Chandramukhi (fictional character) about Soundaraya's Nagavalli from Apthamitra? DareshMohan (talk) 20:15, 4 September 2023 (UTC)

Ok.. Will try to find some links on the same and then update Kataariveera (talk) 12:46, 6 September 2023 (UTC)

Review

Please add review to Draft:Prema Qaidi. DareshMohan (talk) 20:12, 27 September 2023 (UTC)

sorry... No review available Kataariveera (talk) 01:30, 28 September 2023 (UTC)

Need sources for 2003: Heart Beats, Preethisale Beku, Vikram, Vijaya Simha and Avale Nanna Gelathi (2004). Viggy, The Times of India and even broken Deccan Herald reviews are okay. DareshMohan (talk) 00:39, 29 September 2023 (UTC)

For "Heartbeats" - Couldn't find Review as such but some articles:

http://www.viggy.com/news/volume2/current_heartbeats.asp

http://www.viggy.com/english/wings_heartbeats.asp

https://www.indiaglitz.com/heart-beats-review-kannada_amp-movie-9350

For others unfortunately couldnt find anything Kataariveera (talk) 16:07, 29 September 2023 (UTC)

Thanks unfortunately Viggy is not reliable although reviews are notable. Was sad that Vijay Raghavendra's 2003 and 2004 films mostly have no articles. DareshMohan (talk) 00:45, 1 October 2023 (UTC)

Yes... Many movies pre 2006 didnt have extensive reviews in English and the Kannada ones from the newspapers are hard to find on internet Kataariveera (talk) 14:38, 1 October 2023 (UTC)

Original dialogue

Can you add Kannada dialogue of "If you gain courage because a thousand people are standing behind you, then you can only win a war. But if a thousand people get courage because you are standing in front of them, you can conquer the world" to Archana Jois#Career [7]. It comes at the end at 2:30:39 of KGF 1.

KGF is a Kannada film not an English one so I feel having the original with the English translation is a better idea. DareshMohan (talk) 02:36, 14 October 2023 (UTC)

Done... Kataariveera (talk) 05:57, 15 October 2023 (UTC)

Kudos for contributing... Is this dialogue saved under WikiQuote?

Rajesh Krishnan songs

Please add some of the famous songs to his page. DareshMohan (talk) 23:29, 14 October 2023 (UTC)

Ok... Will try Kataariveera (talk) 05:58, 15 October 2023 (UTC)

Jaggesh

Many films without articles. Could you tell me which are the most popular films without articles. DareshMohan (talk) 07:00, 27 October 2023 (UTC)

Among the ones without Pages - important ones are Mr.Bakra (his 100 or 101st movie) , Eshwar (played 9 roles), Jodi (multistarrer with Shivarajkumar), Ganesha, Jipuna Nanna Ganda, Shukradese , Jeetendra, Kiladi, Kubera, Indrana Gedda Narendra, Beda Krishna Ranginata, Huchana Maduveli Undone Jaana, Yaardo Duddu Yellamana Jathre, Dudde Doddappa, Kodagana Koli Nungitta. Kataariveera (talk) 16:44, 27 October 2023 (UTC)

Thanks from the reply, sadly most of these films might not have enough sources (but hopefully will get sources in the future). Thanks for being nice and I hope I get to go to Karnataka one day. DareshMohan (talk) 07:04, 29 October 2023 (UTC)

You are always welcome to Karnataka! Hope to see you soon. Kataariveera (talk) 08:52, 29 October 2023 (UTC)

Thanks man. While I could not find enough sources to make an article on Viggy.com, I'm going to make one for Chitraloka.com, so if you can find any Chitraloka sources for the films mentioned above, hit me up! DareshMohan (talk) 18:22, 30 October 2023 (UTC)

Ya.. Ok... Kataariveera (talk) 01:54, 31 October 2023 (UTC)

Chipping in with my 2 paise's. Isn't chiloka & IMDB good sources ?

Sadly anything without a Wikipedia link isn't good. Chiloka and IMDb are database. DareshMohan (talk) 05:54, 17 November 2023 (UTC)

Question

Is learning south Indian languages programmable? The similarity astounds me and I wanna try it. DareshMohan (talk) 05:53, 17 November 2023 (UTC)

You can - but requires lot of time, energy , patience , enthusiasm and the right teacher and not to lose intetest in between Kataariveera (talk) 16:52, 17 November 2023 (UTC)

Create

Please help create [8]. What is this source saying? DareshMohan (talk) 08:22, 17 November 2023 (UTC)

The source talks about the cine career of actress Anjana starting since 1990.

I.

It lists out the movies done It ends speculating the multiple reas on as to why she left the cinema field in 1997 even though she was at the top of her career. Full translation requird? by her. Kataariveera (talk) 23:53, 17 November 2023 (UTC)

Not needed. I need help with Draft:Rajesh Nataranga. I know he acted in more films in notable roles like Kendasampige. Can you update? DareshMohan (talk) 08:09, 18 November 2023 (UTC)

Done... Added a dozen more movies Kataariveera (talk) 09:23, 19 November 2023 (UTC)

Thank you! DareshMohan (talk) 20:42, 19 November 2023 (UTC)

Role

What time did Cockroach Sudhi come in Kendasampige? [9] [10] DareshMohan (talk) 01:23, 19 November 2023 (UTC)

Could not find. Maybe he has played a minor role. Kataariveera (talk) 09:45, 19 November 2023 (UTC)

Notable film

please add sources to Wikipedia:Requests_for_undeletion#Draft:Ajagajantara. DareshMohan (talk) 07:23, 20 November 2023 (UTC)

Added only 3 sources - 2 about minor references to Upendra and one about Anjana which you had shared Earlier. Not much available Online. Kataariveera (talk) 02:36, 21 November 2023 (UTC)

It is necessary for this article to stay. Ajagajantara @Kailash29792: @Manick22: Please copy edit it. DareshMohan (talk) 07:50, 21 November 2023 (UTC)

Manick22, I don't have desktop access at the moment. Please upload this picture, but this is the proper source. Kailash29792 (talk) 08:28, 21 November 2023 (UTC)

Kannada supporting actors

Can you list all major supporting actors without aritcles a.k.a. Arun Sagar, etc.? DareshMohan (talk) 21:11, 18 November 2023 (UTC)

Arun Sagar already has it.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arun_Sagar

Others who dont have - I can only think of KS Sridhar (who has appeared in movies like Sidlingu and Killing Veerappan), Manjunath Hegde, Krishna Hebbale - all of whom are still in the stage of recognition

Most of the others have it I believe. Kataariveera (talk) 02:19, 21 November 2023 (UTC)

Kannada articles

I am working on these please help. Add translations. @Manick22: add soundtracks.

• Mr. Bakra
• Draft:Rusthum (film)
• Ananda (film) DareshMohan (talk) 20:56, 24 November 2023 (UTC)

Only Mr. Bakra page is opening. I will add whatever details I get. Other 2 pages not opening. Kataariveera (talk) 02:47, 25 November 2023 (UTC)

Add to Ananda (film). I gave up on Draft:Rusthum (film) due to lack of sources. DareshMohan (talk) 20:53, 25 November 2023 (UTC)

Could not find any other sources for Ananda. Added "Plot" for Mr. Bakra. Jaggesh's "Rustum" has no sources except the following:

Add info to Draft:Jootata. DareshMohan (talk) 18:44, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

Added 1 Review from nowrunning.com . Nothing more available online. Kataariveera (talk) 12:20, 29 November 2023 (UTC)

Thanks. Indo-Asian News Service = nowrunning.com for RGV. I moved your review upwards since it was well written and differently worded than RGV's Rediff review. When I was writing the article I saw that there was an Indiaglitz review but sadly that had same exact content as nowrunning & later date. DareshMohan (talk) 06:48, 30 November 2023 (UTC)

RGV mostly wrote for multiple websites. He usually used different wordings but giving the same desired impact. So, you can use whichever is convenient Kataariveera (talk) 14:32, 30 November 2023 (UTC)

Roles

Can you find who played the doctor and nurse roles? [11] DareshMohan (talk) 03:30, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

The doctor role was played by Hari (full name Haridas probably). He played one of the 5 lead actors in the 2002 Kannada movie "Friends". He was actually an assistant cameraman who was made to act because of his fat body structure. He went on to play comedian's role in few movies. Not to be confused with another comedian Hariharan who was also a fat guy. Surprisingly, both were part of Puneeth Rajkumar's movie " Vamshi".

No idea about the female nurse - not a popular face. Kataariveera (talk) 13:33, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

Duniya Vijay 2004 roles

Can you confirm the missing ones? He may have appeared in Ajju and Veera Kannadiga. [12] [13] DareshMohan (talk) 07:13, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

These are links to 2 Different actors. First one is a link to old actor Vijay and the second one is of Duniya Vijay who played minor roles before turning hero. If you are talking about Duniya Vijay, then no, he wasnt part of Veera Kannadiga (not sure about Ajju movie). However, in the second link of Duniya Vijay, 2 important movies where he played villains are missing. One is "Rakshasa" and Other one is "Rishi" - both starring Shivarajkumar. But I guess they are already included in his Wikipedia filmography. Kataariveera (talk) 13:42, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for the response. I was confused because Monalisa was mentioned in the first link and Duniya Vijay does appear in that film [14]. Can you add the character names of Duniya Vijay before Duniya? Even Henchman, etc. will suffice. DareshMohan (talk) 18:10, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

I guess you have already done. Nothing else I suppose Kataariveera (talk) 12:11, 29 November 2023 (UTC)

Yup, only Guna left but I don't have a copy of that film on YouTube. DareshMohan (talk) 06:50, 30 November 2023 (UTC)

Guna mostly wont be available. By the way, changed his character name in 2 movies in his filmography. In Rakshasa, he is not Selva's henchman but his brother Palani. In Rishi, he played a drug peddler. So that would be more apt than saying henchman. Updated accordingly. Kataariveera (talk) 14:36, 30 November 2023 (UTC)

Thanks, I found it interesting how Selva and Palani spoke in Tamil. DareshMohan (talk) 20:50, 30 November 2023 (UTC)

Because in the movie They are from KGF - Its a town bordering Karnataka, TN & Andhra.So all 3 languages - Tamil, Telugu and Kannada are common there. The reason why they selected Tamil name for Those rowdies is that there was real life Tamil Gangster in KGF called Thangam who was notorious. So they partly used his story and mixed fiction.

missing roles

Couldn't find Ruchita Prasad in Monalisa (film) [15]. Can you update her role, Vanita Vasu's, and Shankar Bhat's? I think Shakeela played the principal of the college. DareshMohan (talk) 07:50, 28 November 2023 (UTC)

Ruchita Prasad appears at 00:19:00 as a prospective bride who is alcoholic; Vanitha Vasu appears as Monalisa's mother at 00:27:40 (wearing pink saree); Yes, Shakeela appears in the beginning as college principal; Shankar Bhat might have a small role. Couldnt find him Kataariveera (talk) 12:50, 29 November 2023 (UTC)

Meaning

what does naathi mean cousin sister [16]? DareshMohan (talk) 04:45, 29 November 2023 (UTC)

Not naathi... Its naadni... Actually to be pronounced "Naadini"... It generally means wife's sister/husband's sister.. Is it matching in the movie's context? Kataariveera (talk) 10:35, 29 November 2023 (UTC)

It must mean the daughter of one’s maternal uncle since Harish Raj was not married. DareshMohan (talk) 06:43, 30 November 2023 (UTC)

Haa possible Kataariveera (talk) 14:26, 30 November 2023 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

		The Surreal Barnstar

Thanks for that. My help will always be there Kataariveera (talk) 14:27, 30 November 2023 (UTC)

Current task

I want to fill in the missing roles of Shiva Rajkumar staring with Maduve Agona Baa [17]. DareshMohan (talk) 06:59, 30 November 2023 (UTC)

Done... I filled for 6 movies. I guess no other movie is pending. Let me know if anything is missed out Kataariveera (talk) 15:52, 30 November 2023 (UTC)

Thanks, it would have taken me a while lol. DareshMohan (talk) 20:49, 30 November 2023 (UTC)

No issues at all.I already knew for 3 movies. However, checked for all 6 movies since all were available in YouTube. But yes, since I have watched those movies - it will be easier for me to detect the scenes where there is a probability that Character names is used by others. Kataariveera (talk) 03:55, 1 December 2023 (UTC)

Plot

Help with Draft:Pakka Chukka#Plot. Fix any errors. [18]. DareshMohan (talk) 19:00, 1 December 2023 (UTC)

No.. The scenes of murder are not shown. It is orally told that since they witness a murder, they are coerced to join a mental hospital from where they escape. The movie begins with them already having escaped from hospital (story before that is only narrated not shown. However, in the climax, you can notice that the lady who appears is the one whom they thought was murdered - implying there was no murder)

I will go through the plot and fix it if required. Kataariveera (talk) 02:24, 2 December 2023 (UTC)

Expand Draft:Olu Saar Bari Olu#Plot. Fix any errors. Copied from Viggy DareshMohan (talk) 19:01, 4 December 2023 (UTC)

its Correct - no issue. Do you want me to expand it a bit? Kataariveera (talk) 15:25, 5 December 2023 (UTC)

No need. Unless you saw the film. DareshMohan (talk) 02:04, 6 December 2023 (UTC)

Yes.. I have seen both Kannada and its Marathi original Kataariveera (talk) 02:28, 6 December 2023 (UTC)

Review

Found a plethora of reviews. plz add in free time. This link [19] shows multiple years with black lines. After clicking on the year, each blue circle is a link. Example: [20] DareshMohan (talk) 00:59, 3 December 2023 (UTC)

Superb bro... How you found this?

A request - there are way too many reviews. Instead , if possible, let me know for which movie you required. I will search myself based on the year and add it Kataariveera (talk) 03:41, 3 December 2023 (UTC)

Add to the movies with not many sources. Main purpose is to add to the list of Kannada films with PROD deletion tag to prevent deletion. I don't know how to make one yet but it will look like User:Kailash29792/PROD log.

There is a lot like you said but most have been added to the article and some are reviews for films without articles sadly. Most are listed here. DareshMohan (talk) 05:53, 3 December 2023 (UTC)

Sify reviews! [21] (page takes some time to load). DareshMohan (talk) 02:03, 6 December 2023 (UTC)

Thnx for that. Will start using these at the Earliest Kataariveera (talk) 14:17, 6 December 2023 (UTC)

Trivia

Kannada cinema has a rule that at least 50% of the film has to be shot in Karnataka. The Tamil film 123 took advantage of this and shot their film in Tamil in Bangalore. DareshMohan (talk) 07:22, 3 December 2023 (UTC)

oh Nice info.... Didnt know Kataariveera (talk) 11:19, 3 December 2023 (UTC)

Ramesh Aravind

Can u help write more info on his Kannada career in Ramesh_Aravind#Acting. It is currently very Tamil heavy and only lists his hit films. Also expand the lead of Ramesh Aravind filmography. I would love to make it a Featured list. Criteria: good lead & source for each film. DareshMohan (talk) 04:14, 4 December 2023 (UTC)

Can you find sources in Kannada that mention Mutthu (2002) (not databases). This review is not enough. DareshMohan (talk) 21:41, 6 December 2023 (UTC)

Not available bro. I ll be expanding Ramesh Aravind acting career with Kannada movies. In case, I find anything regarding Muthu , I ll add. However that seems unlikely since nothing available Kataariveera (talk) 03:31, 8 December 2023 (UTC)

Ok thanks mate. In that case, all missing Ramesh Aravind film articles with reliable or enough sources have been made. DareshMohan (talk) 06:25, 8 December 2023 (UTC)

Oh.. Fine then... Thank you Kataariveera (talk) 08:58, 8 December 2023 (UTC)

Upendra (film)

Can you add the missing character descriptions [22] (i removed unnamed cast)? For Duniya, I removed unknown roles because it is best to only list known roles. DareshMohan (talk) 06:41, 18 December 2023 (UTC)

Thanks

Heartfelt thanks for all your movie recs. I am keen to catch up on them. I have seen Upendra and Duniya and I realised that those films are not my type and weren't movies you recommended (not keen on violence movies; like comedy/romance movies). DareshMohan (talk) 07:37, 19 December 2023 (UTC)

No issue... Before watching a movie , you can ask me about them. I will tell you how good its for your taste. By the way, which language you speak? Kataariveera (talk) 15:40, 19 December 2023 (UTC)

Tamil. Hopefully I can find Dattha, etc. with subs. DareshMohan (talk) 21:51, 19 December 2023 (UTC)

Very difficult to find subtitles Kataariveera (talk) 23:46, 19 December 2023 (UTC)

Kokila

Can you help with the cast [23]? There is a character named Ramnath. Trying to find the role of G. V. Shivanand (who starred in Malgudi Days [24]). The film's credits say Pallavi in a guest appearance, not sure who she is. DareshMohan (talk) 08:38, 3 January 2024 (UTC)

Can you tell the timestamp where the character of Ramnath appears?

In the meanwhile, I will watch Kokila and let you know where Shivanand appears.

I am aware of GV Shivanand. A trivia for you - Shivanand trained Kamal Hassan for Kokila movie to get his Kannada pronunciation right.Shivanand was the son of great Kannada dramatist Gubbi Veeranna under whom Dr.Rajkumar was working in stage plays before coming to movies.

Dont know who is Pallavi Kataariveera (talk) 16:58, 3 January 2024 (UTC)

listing other characters: [25] (Ramnath mentioned but character not onscreen)

[26]

[27] (not sure who left side is)

[28]. DareshMohan (talk) 19:12, 3 January 2024 (UTC)

Sorry... Could identify Only one person - @ 36:37 ... His name is Rajaram. Others even I dont know.

As far as Rajaram is concerned, he became a bit popular only after he became old that too not in prominent roles but small roles. Kataariveera (talk) 02:29, 4 January 2024 (UTC)

Hey, I have added a range for the BO collection since any figure we give will be challenged. Hence I think we should go with a range, and provide a cite for both figures and a note saying there is a discrepancy. Thanks. The Herald (Benison) (talk) 08:14, 7 January 2024 (UTC)

Ok.. I agree. Please update. Kataariveera (talk) 08:31, 7 January 2024 (UTC)

• Where is Ganesh in Veeru (2006)? DareshMohan (talk) 07:23, 25 January 2024 (UTC)

  Ganesh is not there in Veeru Kataariveera (talk) 16:56, 25 January 2024 (UTC)

• translation of Nilavilakku and aruval in kannada?
• Have you seen Shrungara Kavya and Megha Maale? Can you add the character names? Can you also fill out S. Narayan's missing roles in filmography table? DareshMohan (talk) 06:19, 25 January 2024 (UTC)

  "Nilavilakku" - is "Deepada Kamba"... also called " Kaaludeepa" but deepadakamba is used more...

  "Aruval" is called "machchu" (machete) which is used to slice tender coconut but the other variant used in movies to potray rowdy element - its called "long" - yes no specific word. Colloquially called "Longu" because it is bit long like a sword with billhook.

  Dont remember both Shrungarakavya and Meghamale - though I have seen them. So, wont be able to help on that.

  S. Narayan filmography I ll try to fill it. Kataariveera (talk) 17:50, 25 January 2024 (UTC)

Thanks so much for responding. DareshMohan (talk) 21:02, 25 January 2024 (UTC)

All of the names are there in Ganesh filmography. I am not sure of the best way to describe his roles in Tapori or Abbabba Entha Huduga. You can update the names. DareshMohan (talk) 06:17, 29 January 2024 (UTC)

No.. What you have described is the best.. change not required for those 2 movies Kataariveera (talk) 15:52, 29 January 2024 (UTC)

End credits

Can you check if Vithika Sheru is mentioned in end credits of Ullasa Utsaha [29]. She is not listed in Chiloka. DareshMohan (talk) 21:39, 15 February 2024 (UTC)

Checked thoroughly. It is not there. But who is Vithika Sheru? Kataariveera (talk) 15:13, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

See Vithika Sheru. Came in Ullasa Utsaha as cousin sister role. They may have credited her by a different name. DareshMohan (talk) 19:39, 18 February 2024 (UTC)

Yes if its credited with other name, unless we are sure that Its not other person, we cannot include Kataariveera (talk) 15:08, 19 February 2024 (UTC)

She went by the name Keerthi during that time. DareshMohan (talk) 06:15, 15 March 2024 (UTC)

Wow..Keerthi is included in end credits at 02:32:55... plz include it Kataariveera (talk) 12:12, 15 March 2024 (UTC)

I was more surprised when she was not included in the end credits of Bheemili Kabaddi Jattu (Keerthi కీర్తి) despite playing a major role. DareshMohan (talk) 05:15, 17 March 2024 (UTC)

Since films without articles are Kannada films. I was wondering if you could help. (User:DareshMohan/sandbox#Need_articles) Tiny articles can be created and expanded later. Just clicking a red link will create an article: Prema Chandrama. DareshMohan (talk) 07:25, 19 February 2024 (UTC)

Bro.. I am Not comfortable creating a page but if someone creates I will update it.. Sorry Kataariveera (talk) 02:07, 20 February 2024 (UTC)

np. yes even i hate creating pages. The reason: pages you create are associated with your account meaning that if you create an account for an actor that actor's manager etc. can find out about it since Google puts Wikipedia result in top. That's why I rather only create film articles. DareshMohan (talk)

Remake

Is Galate Aliyandru a remake of Andaz Apna Apna or Ullathai Allitha (songs like Laila Laila make it look like the Tamil song). Is Dhai Akshar Prem Ke a remake of A Walk in the Clouds or Pooveli? DareshMohan (talk) 20:24, 7 March 2024 (UTC)

Galate Aliyandru is a scene by scene remake of Ullathai Allitha. Ullatha Allitha has copied scenes from Andaaz Apna Apna.

Dhai Akshar Prem Ke (DAPK) is not remake of Pooveli. Both are inspired by A Walk In The Clouds which was a remake of Italian movie Four Steps Into Clouds and that Italian movie was adapted into Kannada as "Mungaarina Minchu". Kataariveera (talk) 14:11, 9 March 2024 (UTC)

Sources in the lead section

They don't always have to be, per WP:LEADCITE. But they must be sourced in the body. Kailash29792 (talk) 16:10, 10 March 2024 (UTC)

Ok.. Agreed. Kataariveera (talk) 01:38, 11 March 2024 (UTC)

Full name

I think Ramesh Aravind credited with full name only in recent films and not older 2000s films. This source says that he was credited as Ramesh Aravind in Tamil and Ramesh in Kannada. This reminds me of Arjun Sarja because I don't remember him being credited with full name in any Tamil film. DareshMohan (talk) 05:43, 5 April 2024 (UTC)

He was always credited "Ramesh" in Kannada. The first time I saw "Ramesh Aravind" in title card was for his debut directorial "Rama Shama Bhama" co-starring Kamal Haasan (remake of Sathi Leelavathi). There also, he credited "Ramesh" when his name appeared for acting but credited himself as "Ramesh Aravind" for direction credits. This was done to avoid confusion as Ramesh was a common name among actors in Kannada industry (like Mandya Ramesh, Ramesh Bhat, Jadugar Ramesh) and it was his debut in direction leading to confusion which Ramesh was debuting as director. So to distinguish , he started using "Ramesh Aravind" - Though I am not sure when it became started to be used permanently. As far as Arjun is considered, I think he was never ever known as Arjun Sarja in Tamil whereas in Kannada it was always Arjun Sarja. Kataariveera (talk) 15:22, 5 April 2024 (UTC)

Idu Entha Premavayya

I am inclined to create this article after finding this source [30]. Have you seen the film? DareshMohan (talk) 04:35, 9 April 2024 (UTC)

Yes..Seen... It is inspired by the 1982 Hindi movie "Kaamchor" which in turn was a remake of 1980 Telugu movie

"Subhodayam". Kataariveera (talk) 02:27, 10 April 2024 (UTC)

I created the article Idu Entha Premavayya. Which song is the title song? Can you check if everything in it is correct? DareshMohan (talk) 06:29, 15 April 2024 (UTC)

"Yeneno Kanasu Kandalu" is the title song - the title is used at 35 seconds into the song.

Other details mostly ok. Kataariveera (talk) 12:38, 16 April 2024 (UTC)

Reviews

Like you said, my search for reviews ended in vain. Almost anytime I enter a date on Sunday (tried for January & February 2004) [31], it is dead. I want to go through every Sunday but I realise that almost all of them are dead. DareshMohan (talk) 01:10, 20 April 2024 (UTC)

Glad you took time to go through it but unfortunately your efforts will mostly go in vain. Kataariveera (talk) 01:47, 20 April 2024 (UTC)

Any film with 2 reviews (indiainfo, viggy) will get an article. I am currently going to do Draft:Balarama (film). DareshMohan (talk) 07:22, 22 April 2024 (UTC)

Balarama - expanded. Please Check once. Kataariveera (talk) 13:02, 22 April 2024 (UTC)

Nice work. Finding 2 reviews in general is rare but good expansion. DareshMohan (talk) 16:46, 22 April 2024 (UTC)

Thanks.. If possible, try to correct Reception and External Links section. I will soon be adding the soundtrack details. Kataariveera (talk) 16:58, 22 April 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for your interest, the article is now complete. I showed you the name of the article I was working on and didn't expect you to be of so much help 🙏. DareshMohan (talk) 02:30, 23 April 2024 (UTC)

Any article on Kannada movie, please let me know. I may be of any help. Kataariveera (talk) 04:21, 23 April 2024 (UTC)

Draft:Kushalave Kshemave. DareshMohan (talk) 20:03, 23 April 2024 (UTC)

Your efforts has covered almost everything. Kudos! Whatever small pending to be covered, I have edited. Kataariveera (talk) 14:42, 24 April 2024 (UTC)

Thanks. Add translation. DareshMohan (talk) 15:26, 24 April 2024 (UTC)

It is actually used to ask someone when u meet them or in letter akin to "Nalla Irkingla". So how do u translate that - "Are You Alright"? But That is not sounding that good.Think of any alternate phrase. Kataariveera (talk) 16:45, 24 April 2024 (UTC)

Nalla Irkingala direct translation means Have you been doing well. Can we use that? Surprised you know Tamil too. DareshMohan (talk) 03:06, 25 April 2024 (UTC)

Yes please.... Thats a better translation. Please use it. I know a bit of Tamil. Kataariveera (talk) 05:48, 25 April 2024 (UTC)

next article Draft:Bhoomi (2000 film). DareshMohan (talk) 06:23, 30 April 2024 (UTC)

Done to the extent possible. Please go through it and fine tune it. Kataariveera (talk) 17:26, 30 April 2024 (UTC)

Thank you so much🙏. Do you know what Odia films Charulatha acted in? I removed it because it was unsourced. DareshMohan (talk) 18:00, 30 April 2024 (UTC)

High chance of her Having acted in Odia movies But I was not able to find anything on YouTube Kataariveera (talk) 04:25, 1 May 2024 (UTC)

next article Draft:Chappale. DareshMohan (talk) 07:31, 1 May 2024 (UTC)

next article Draft:Kanakambari (film). DareshMohan (talk) 05:19, 4 May 2024 (UTC)

Can't find second review for Chappale. The song "Bachiko Nannalli" is good. DareshMohan (talk) 23:51, 7 May 2024 (UTC)

Finding hard for both Chappale and Kanakambari. Will find a way out.

Kataariveera (talk) 02:11, 8 May 2024 (UTC)

Can you restore the Themes and influences section with reliable sources not YouTube [32]. DareshMohan (talk) 18:24, 8 May 2024 (UTC)

There are no written articles apart From videos by reviewers. I suggest you to retain "Themes & Influence" section and if YT videos are considered not reliable , just mark them {{Better Citation needed}}. I am unable to restore. It is showing some old page before edit or something like that. Kataariveera (talk) 04:26, 9 May 2024 (UTC)

Next articles Draft:Ellara Mane Dosenu and Draft:Mahalakshmi (film). DareshMohan (talk) 23:35, 9 May 2024 (UTC)

All 4 - Chappale, Kanakambari, Ellara Mane Dosenu and Mahalakshmi - will be taken up after May 22. In the meanwhile, you can add other drafts also Kataariveera (talk) 03:30, 10 May 2024 (UTC)

Ok, cool just saying that Chappale is dropped because lack of second review and the fact that Viggy is unreliable so any non-review stuff is not reliable. Also Kanakambari already is an article. DareshMohan (talk) 04:18, 10 May 2024 (UTC)

oh kk.. Thnx for the update Kataariveera (talk) 11:17, 10 May 2024 (UTC)

Mahalakshmi (film) is done. That wraps up Ramesh Aravind's films as all of his future films after that have articles. DareshMohan (talk) 03:46, 13 May 2024 (UTC)

wow nice.. Hats off for your efforts... So only "Ellara Mane Dosenoo" remains now Kataariveera (talk) 04:18, 13 May 2024 (UTC)

Done with Ellara Mane Dosenu. please check translation. DareshMohan (talk) 06:19, 14 May 2024 (UTC)

Translation is fine. No issue. Added a line about the plot of the movie. Check and rectify it. Kataariveera (talk) 16:12, 14 May 2024 (UTC)

Names. Does "Nodi Shiva" mean that his name is Shiva? [33] If not, please rectify it. They say Guru a lot in the film (or in Kannada language in general) and it doesn't indicate a name. DareshMohan (talk) 05:55, 10 June 2024 (UTC)

True.. "Guru" is an equivalent to calling "Sir"/" Bro". "Guru" is used to call a not so familiar person (for friends, the word used is "Maga" - can be equated to calling "Machcha" for friends. "Machcha" has turned into "Machchi" in 2000s Kannada movies). Using "Shiva" is similar to using Guru to call someone. Other equivalents which we use for similar References will be "Dhani" or "Devru". Individually, Shiva or Guru can be names of persons but coloquially used more in Bangalore to refer someone.

In the current instance - "Nodi" means "to see". So " nodi Shiva" means "see bro" or "paar machcha". Kataariveera (talk) 02:09, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

Expansions

See User_talk:DareshMohan#Muthina Haara. Since WP:NO DEADLINE and the fact that I didn't have time to do these expansions, I didn't do them. DareshMohan (talk) 17:53, 24 June 2024 (UTC)

ok.. I will do for both Muttina Haara and Himapatha Kataariveera (talk) 02:25, 25 June 2024 (UTC)

Youtube links

Please stop adding links to mobile Youtube videos. These are proper sources nor correctly formatted references. --ZimZalaBim ^talk 13:41, 26 June 2024 (UTC)

Hi.. when an article written by a person is considered as reliable, why will same person coming on video will be considered irreliable? Please clarify. Its just a change of medium.I agree it was not correctly formatted. Usually, even for written articles, other contributors format the links which I add. Henceforth, will try to do correct formatting.

My edits on Kannada films

Hi bro, check out the articles of films Kowrava and Karnataka Suputra which i created hope it is done well and i also expanded the articles of films of vishnuvardhan and ravichandran. Srivin (talk) 17:15, 1 July 2024 (UTC)

Great job brother - only issue is "Soundtrack" section of both the pages needs to be formatted in standard format. Please let me know you want to do that or should I do?

In case of "Karnataka Suputra", please check by what name was Rituparna Sengupta credited in title card. I guess full name was not there. That info can be added. Also, Raj has sung background song for Vishnu movie - a rare instance. Maybe only 4 movies we can find this. That info also can be added in " Soundtrack" section itself. Kataariveera (talk) 05:42, 2 July 2024 (UTC)

i can speak and understand kannada to an extent but cannot write or read it. my mother tongue is tamil. it would be nice if u check the credits. Srivin (talk) 14:16, 2 July 2024 (UTC)

Oh fine.. I will check and update it by this weekend. Kataariveera (talk) 17:29, 2 July 2024 (UTC)

do not forget to check my expansion on putnanja, sipayi, mojugara sogasugara, samrat Srivin (talk) 05:44, 4 July 2024 (UTC)

oh.. Superb... I ll go through all... Kataariveera (talk) 13:07, 4 July 2024 (UTC)

bro do check my expansion on shanti kranti, putnanja, sipayi check if its right do u think it needs more reference. Srivin (talk) 10:34, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

Sure bro... Give me 2 weeks time.. Kataariveera (talk) 10:40, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

Sorry bro.. Forgot.. Doing it right now.. Kataariveera (talk) 15:03, 9 September 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for your input for "Production" and "Soundtrack" sections bro. Hats off For your efforts. Whatever minor corrections were to be made have been made for these 5 movies. "Shanthi Kranthi" did not need any change. Kataariveera (talk) 16:52, 9 September 2024 (UTC)

thanks for checking bro do expand mahakshatriya and himapatha there are lots of info about the film spoken by director for prajavani which is attached in production. Srivin (talk) 14:47, 10 September 2024 (UTC)

Sure.. I ll check both & expand Kataariveera (talk) 02:58, 11 September 2024 (UTC)

wish there were more info about amruthavarshini in internet though there are articles but most of them did not cover any interesting behind the scenes of the film considering that the film has an interesting plot and both the film and songs still remains a cult. Srivin (talk) 14:37, 12 September 2024 (UTC)

Yes.. Unfortunately thats the case with most Kannada movies pre - 2010... Kataariveera (talk) 15:44, 12 September 2024 (UTC)

Hi bro... Thanks for the information about "Himapatha"... Expanded the " Production" section. Please go through the same... Also additions done to "Mahakshatriya" Kataariveera (talk) 13:21, 19 October 2024 (UTC)

Darshan TV roles

Can you update which cartoons [34] he worked as a dubbing artiste and what his roles in television serials were? DareshMohan (talk) 20:19, 1 July 2024 (UTC)

Hi brother, information about him having worked in serials was known though dont remember his character names or what character (since I never used to Watch serials). Those not available on YouTube also. Did not know about him having dubbed for cartoons. Thats news for me! So I will be able to add only if I get information on the same. Kataariveera (talk) 05:47, 2 July 2024 (UTC)

When was Kashinath's heyday?

I tried creating articles for 12AM Madhyarathri and Draft:Ol Muniswamy although both seem low-key. Popular films such as Hello Yama lack articles. Could only find mentions here [35] (as Hello Yama) and [36] (review of Telugu remake). If you could look through his films and say which popular films lack articles, it would be helpful. DareshMohan (talk) 01:48, 10 July 2024 (UTC)

Kashinath's heydays were from 1984 to 1999.

The prominent ones which are not having Wikipages are:

Adhrushta Rekhe, Manmatha Raja, Surasundaranga, Kaliyuga Krishna, Love Training, Hello Yama, Chorguru Chandala Shishya, Meese Hotta Gandasige Demandappo Demandu. Kataariveera (talk) 02:06, 11 July 2024 (UTC)

yes seen long back.. Dont remember the names.. Ambareesh's name might be Rangegowda Kataariveera (talk) 16:50, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

No rush, I will have to watch the film and add the plot/characters before making it an article. What was Vikky Varun's role in Kaddipudi? DareshMohan (talk) 00:00, 15 August 2024 (UTC)

He played the role of Radhika Pandith's friend's boyfriend named Santhosh... who gets killed within first 23 minutes.. He worked as assistant Director in this Movie.. Dialogue writer Masthi too played a rookie cop in the movie... Kataariveera (talk) 05:08, 15 August 2024 (UTC)

Kataariveera (talk) 02:16, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

These will be my choice ( I ll exclude remake movies):

Before 2000s:

Gowri Ganesha ( 90s comedy - remade in Tamil later)

Kalyana Mantapa (late 80s - comedy)

Beladingala Baale (90s)

Bhagyada Lakshmi Baramma (early 80s comedy - remade in Telugu later)

Halu Jenu (80s)

Daari Tappida Maga (70s) (remade in Malayalam Later)

Inspector Vikram (late 80s - comedy thriller)

2000s - 2016:

Milana (inspired the Tamil movie "Raja Rani" later)

Arasu

Krishna Leela

Recent:

Birbal (remade in Telugu later)

Gantumoote ( not an entertainer - hard hitting social movie) Kataariveera (talk) 02:17, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

And Ondu Motteya Kathe isn't slow but its more of a one line story And relies on screenplay. Chandrachakori and Mussangemathu are not slow but ok ok movie...

And unfortunately I m not in Tech bro.. I m into Finance.. Kataariveera (talk) 02:20, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

Jaggesh-Komal

Is only Jaggesh famous? Komal seems more low-key and is even selective with his roles [37]. Both of them appeared in Manmatha but Komal's role was appreciated [38]. DareshMohan (talk) 01:13, 20 September 2024 (UTC)

You can equate him to Santhanam - started in small roles, went on to be top billed comedian replacing senior comedians who were getting old, then decided to be a lead actor, initially found good success in comedy movie in leadrole, slowly started to fade out in lead role but refused to come back to playing sidekick comedian to other actors. Same problem with Telugu comedian Sunil - but he is now playing villain roles. Komal can think of same considering he has played villain roles in his brother's movies at the beginning of his career. Co incidentally, Sunil's Maryada Ramanna had Komal in Kannada remake and Santhanam in Tamil remake! Kataariveera (talk) 02:41, 20 September 2024 (UTC)

I meant to add more reviews about his performances in the career section. He is known more as an actor than an activist right? DareshMohan (talk) 04:01, 30 September 2024 (UTC)

Can you confirm that there was no Karnataka State Film Award for Best Director for 2011-2013 because the sources for that year don't mention the award or HLN "Simha" Award. DareshMohan (talk) 17:20, 30 September 2024 (UTC)

Is it? Have not noticed.. Will check and revert... Kataariveera (talk) 02:19, 1 October 2024 (UTC)

Also for other years too (1999, 2000). Incorrectly the first best film without a source was also again mentioned in best director, I have rectified it. Source is needed. Per Wikipedia policy, if the awards for the year mention every award except that award, unsourced information has to be removed. To confirm the lack of awards for some years, there have been other award categories that were not given some years: Karnataka State Film Award for Best Children Film, Karnataka State Film Award for Best Child Actor (Female), and Karnataka State Film Award for Best Art Direction.

Not sure about reliability of Viggy but even with Best Director award, Mussanje won five awards but this source mentions six [39]. DareshMohan (talk) 17:58, 1 October 2024 (UTC)

I will check the claims and authenticity soon after festival and revert Kataariveera (talk) 04:53, 2 October 2024 (UTC)

Edit: I made a mistake. Mussanje actually did win the director award after seeing the DVD cover [40]. Seems like 99.99% of time director of First Best Film award wins Best Director award. Enjoy your festival. DareshMohan (talk) 05:44, 3 October 2024 (UTC)

Wow... Truly hats off brother for your efforts Kataariveera (talk) 07:28, 3 October 2024 (UTC)

What have you included is fine bro... done minor changes.. Kataariveera (talk) 14:43, 8 October 2024 (UTC)

Surprising... But its true that Best Director Award is not seen in the winners list announced. While its true that sometimes other category are not awarded but this happening with Director award is puzzling Kataariveera (talk) 13:34, 19 October 2024 (UTC)

Check translation of Nannedeya Haadu. DareshMohan (talk) 02:27, 15 October 2024 (UTC)

"Ede" literally means "chest" as you translated but poetically used to mean "heart" - they use "edeyaladinda" - here "aala" means "depth"; so " edeyaladinda" is used to mean "from bottom of the heart" though literal translation would have meant"from the depth of chest" (which is not wat the lyricsist wants).. So "Nannadeya Haadu" means "My Heart's Song"... Kataariveera (talk) 06:10, 15 October 2024 (UTC)

Can you help me find the roles of Shivaram and Srinivasa Murthy in Neenello Naanalle? [41] DareshMohan (talk) 09:07, 19 October 2024 (UTC)

Shivaram is the inspector who appears in the very first scene. He is not named. His name on the badge also not clear. Srinivas Murthy is referred as only "Maashtru" both at 18:40 as well as at 37:40 -37:58. Maashtru is just a Kannadised version of Master. Even at 01:58:00 when asked who are you - he just says I am just after small station "master" for people who are moving towards their destination. Kataariveera (talk) 10:57, 19 October 2024 (UTC)

Is this R. G. Vijayasarathy (bald guy right side) [42]. Might be a lookalike. His name is not listed in the end credits. The film is a remake of Josh, was partly shot in Bangalore too and had other Kannada actors like Srinath, Sihi Kahi Chandru, Robot Ganesh and Chidanand. DareshMohan (talk) 06:20, 20 October 2024 (UTC)

No.. he is Vijayasarathi Only.. 100%... no doubt about That ... but not sure Why his name not included... Kataariveera (talk) 14:57, 20 October 2024 (UTC)

What role did Poornachandra Mysore play in Lucia? DareshMohan (talk) 17:43, 21 October 2024 (UTC)

He played the role of drug peddler. He along with Prashant Siddhi take Ninasam Satish to the drug dealer(Balaji Manohar) who sells Lucia pills. In the video uploaded in YouTube, at 07:30 - u can see him getting beaten up in lock up by constable Rishab Shetty.. At 14.00 - he takes Satish to drug dealer Kataariveera (talk) 02:22, 22 October 2024 (UTC)

How to learn Kannada?

Not an urgent request, but as you know it is one of my life goals (say I learn Kannada & visit Karnataka in x years). I would love to be exposed to something other than cinema as well (i.e. watching dubbed films again isn't my cup of tea; maybe should watch old movies). In the big cities of Karnataka, I bet I could get by without it Kannada. In fact, someday I would like to visit every state and be immersed in their language. Sadly, Hindi has became widespread and I never learned it due to lack of interest. To me, Kannada seems very similar to Tamil. I don't know how to read the letters though. Worst is how Duolingo ignores most Indian languages and apps are not the best. DareshMohan (talk) 08:24, 20 September 2024 (UTC)

yes some of the words in kannada are slightly similar to tamil except for change in spelling like for example poo in kannada means hoo and paalu in kannada means haalu. Srivin (talk) 12:47, 20 September 2024 (UTC)

Hats off for your love brother... Unfortunately its not easy to identify any method to learn. Watching Rajkumar & Ananth Nag Movies without subtitles or any Kannada movie with subtitle or referring "Learn Kannada in 30 days" book are the better effective methods Kataariveera (talk) 09:21, 21 September 2024 (UTC)

Vijay Raghavendra and Radhika Kumaraswamy

Can you check their articles and mention which of their films that are well known that don't have articles. Obviously I would have to find reliable sources before creating, which as you know is very difficult and might not exist (I have not found any reliable sources for Neela Megha Shyama yet [48]). I might be at fault for removing the poorly sourced articles, but I feel that Prema Qaidi should have an article [it would need like at least one more source]. At least the song "Neenadre Nanageista" seems to be known [49]. The source here on that draft [50] is just a passing mention and is about Romeo Juliet (2002 film).

I am planning on creating an article for Preetisle Beku, but I need to add the plot so might have to watch the film myself if you have not seen it. The reason I am creating it is because is that it has a section here [51] (as Preetheslebeku) and another Viggy source [52]. Wish there was more reliable sources but I was surprised to find the Times of India source itself. Only issue is that if it gets deleted, it might be hard to recreate.

P. S. It is sad that Viggy is not considered reliable since it written by one person but I feel good for creating articles for Chitraloka.com and R. G. Vijayasarathy because it makes them reliable, so even if RGV wrote a review published on nowrunning.com, it is considered reliable. Also sad is that Deccan Herald didn't archive their review properly (esp before 2003 is nonexistent [53]), indiainfo.com has reviews for no Vijay Raghavendra films [54], also this random site go4i that I didn't know about till recently didn't archive most of their reviews after 2001 [55].

No problem. Before looking in to that, add career section to Prajwal Devaraj @Manick22: DareshMohan (talk) 18:56, 27 October 2024 (UTC)

Sure Kataariveera (talk) 01:53, 28 October 2024 (UTC)

Its Unfortunate but sad truth is its highly difficult to find articles on Kannada movies in early internet era even for big movies. So, its mostly impossible to find sources for such mid budget movies. The only regular source was Viggy which again cannot be considered a reliable source. Plus we cannot create a page for it since hardly any info available about its origin. In that sense, We need to appreciate your efforts in creating page for Chitraloka and RGV! Among the English print media, Only Deccan Herald used to regularly review Kannada movies. But hardly we can find their old articles online now. Kannada media online version that old is out of question. Kataariveera (talk) 16:08, 6 November 2024 (UTC)

Summary of large paragraph: Correct translation, expand plot, character names etc. on Preetisle Beku. DareshMohan (talk) 08:51, 31 October 2024 (UTC)

I can't find where Tulasi (actress), Sujatha (actress) and M. S. Umesh come in the film (listed on chiloka.com). I can't find the name of the Harisha and his girlfriend Aish actor names. Why is Chaya Singh called as Preeti in the end when she screams for help in water? Which actor is in the leftside at 14:51 [56]?DareshMohan (talk) 17:05, 5 November 2024 (UTC)

None of them are there in the movie. However, the title credits do have these names. But they may be referring to any lesser known actors with same name and Chiloka might have put the picture of these popular actors wrongly. I am also unaware of the guy referred at 14:52. Whats Chaya's name in the movie? Is it similarly sounding to Preethi or any rhyming name? -audio isnt clear Kataariveera (talk) 15:43, 6 November 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for your response, can't believe that Gaalipata 2 movie earn 20 crores in First single days How can it possible Gaalipata 2 collects 20 crores in first, even Ganesh's recent krishnam pranaya earn 1.5 crores in first day, i think news channel link irrreliable source, cant to collects 20 crores in first day, its mentioned in a film article and list of Highest grossing kannada films, check and correct it.

@Kataariveera Hemanthhaem (talk) 05:14, 4 November 2024 (UTC)

We have to clearly go by what news articles (from those outlet Which are not treated as irreliable) say. However, if there are multiple media with different figures - we give a range or we consider which figure is quoted more frequently by most of the reliable source. In case of Galipata 2, if there are other sources which give different figures, please let me know. Kataariveera (talk) 07:37, 4 November 2024 (UTC)

Viggy.com

Do checkout B. N. Subramanya. He along with Roopa Hegde founded Viggy.com right (says Roopa and me here)? He is considered a backbone as per this.

This article mentions we at Viggy.com. Is we referring to a team of editors or did Roopa Hegde write this?

When I did inspect element on this page it says Roopa Hegde (viggy.com), Shivaraj, B.N. Subrahmanya (viggy.com). If Shivaraj is not part of Viggy.com, then it shows that only Roopa Hegde and B. N. Subramanya managed Viggy.com.

Either way, it is a breakthrough that Viggy.com has a link since B. N. Subramanya either majorly or partially contributed to the website, potentially making it reliable! DareshMohan (talk) 10:15, 19 November 2024 (UTC)

Wow.. Hats off brother 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 ur efforts will go a long way.. Your observation is right.. I too agree only BNS & Roopa might be involved in viggy... anyways I m so happy that you were able to do this...😍 Kataariveera (talk) 15:41, 19 November 2024 (UTC)

What role did Akhila play (was it prospective bride for hero)? Name appears higher up in credits per chiloka.com and is listed in two reviews [58] [59]. DareshMohan (talk) 07:02, 21 November 2024 (UTC)

Yes... Akhila played the prospective bride who is good at boxing and is the daughter of RG Vijayasarathi. Her character name was Malleshwari "Malli" Kataariveera (talk) 08:31, 21 November 2024 (UTC)

Kuvalaya-mala, the other source was composed in 779CE that mentions Marathi in

Since you are not willing to believe in the official Government source that gave Marathi the classical status, why are you ignoring the other source 'Kuvayala-mala'composed in 779CE that clearly states it's based on the language used in the Maharashtra region. If 981CE is your acceptable date then obviously the language must have originated way earlier. Britannica source is outdated and the Britannica source has got more to do with literature than the language origin itself. Around the 10th century was when Marathi reached a mature linguistic period. It is surprising that the reason why Marathi got classical status (i.e. its continuity with Maharashtri Prakrit) is being denied when the committee that grants classical status have experts from all languages seated and who review each and every thing before granting the classical status. If Marathi's first attestation is 10th century how is it even Classical considering the criteria to be classical itself states 1,500 years minimum. A language goes through various changes as well as name changes just the way a person does during their lifespan but that does not mean that the language is different just the way the person isn't Rightmostdoor6 (talk) 06:01, 22 November 2024 (UTC)

The List is based on earliest inscription found and not when the Language originated. Britannica is used exactly for the reason its about recorded history and not about language. As far as your claim of criteria of 1500 yrs is concerned, Check "criteria" section in the same page - it says "early texts over 1000 yrs". So its recorded history originating in 10th century will suffice in granting That status Kataariveera (talk) 12:53, 22 November 2024 (UTC)

But the Britannica article does not state anything about any inscription. It instead talks about the origin of its literature. The very name of the article is 'Marathi Literature'.

For the criteria I checked with my eyes wide open and it states it is 1500-2000 years. If it is not at least 1500 years old it cannot stand as a Classical Language. The criteria that you speak of is the old 2004 criteria when Tamil was granted classical status which was a 1000 years. They changed it to 1500 years way back in 2005. You may have missed this updated criteria. The only reason Marathi has been granted classical status is because of its continuity with Maharashtri, that the Experts' Committee proved and the government approved. What other document other than the government document should suffice ? If the Marathi Experts' Committee has proved it. If the Sahitya Akademi Experts' panel has agreed and the Ministry of Culture is also approving and putting forth the document that grants classical status officially, then why is it being refuted ? We are no experts here. The experts have done their job. I have merely updated the status basis the latest official document by the Ministry of Culture. It's just a matter of logical acceptance on your end with no offence intended. Also you missed the 2nd source link "Kuvayala-mala" that clearly states 779 CE was when it was written based on the language used in Maharashtra which means Marathi existed even before that and hence the continuity with Maharashtri is very logical

Rightmostdoor6 (talk) 18:08, 22 November 2024 (UTC)

Check "Kavulayamala" article in Wikipedia only. It mentions the language is Prakrit.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kuvalaya-m%C4%81l%C4%81

Check the language section Kataariveera (talk) 02:02, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

The Prakrit spoken in the Maharashtra region was Marathi. Marathi is ultimately Maharashtri Prakrit. That is why the source is linked with Marathi in the first place. If it were merely Prakrit then why even link that source with Marathi specifically ? It has not been done by me. It has been done by the editor of the page. If that Prakrit has no relation with Marathi then it has no business being linked with Marathi in the first place. But because indeed that Prakrit is Maharashtri which was spoken in the Maharashtra region and because Maharashtri is Marathi as proved by the Experts' Committee and accepted by the Ministry of culture, the source was linked with Marathi(not done by me). And it is obvious that the language spoken in the Maharashtra region is none other than Marathi. Which is why I am explaining to you that Maharashtri is Marathi and that is why even though Prakrit was mentioned in Kuvayala-mala, it was linked to Marathi and not Bengali, Odia or the Prakrit language itself that got classical status.Rightmostdoor6 (talk) 06:48, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

Irrespective of who linked it - unless the original page wont reflect Marathi,it cannot be considered... Kataariveera (talk) 09:21, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

Okay then can you help me out with 3 things here. First one is if it does not have Marathi mentioned then why is it linked to Marathi ? Secondly if Marathi is 1,000 years old it should not be in the this classical list since the 2005 Criteria states a minimum of 1,500-2,000 years of antiquity. And thirdly if the Ministry of Culture and the Experts' Panel have concluded that Maharashtri is Marathi and has continuity according to this document - https://static.pib.gov.in/WriteReadData/specificdocs/documents/2024/oct/doc2024104409001.pdf

Then is their research wrong ? since you're the expert here Rightmostdoor6 (talk) 09:30, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

1. Check history to know who added the link - it was added randomly

2. Tell me which is the earliest year when the recorded inscription of Marathi was found Kataariveera (talk) 10:25, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

I truly and with all earnesty request you to go through these 2 links once properly. It is mentioned there. Even in Sangam Literature 'Maharatthi' is mentioned which was the old name of Marathi. The 1st link is of the evidences produced by the committee- https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/mumbai/clamour-grows-for-marathi-to-be-given-classical-language-status/articleshow/63776578.cms

This was submitted to the Ministry of Culture that accords classical status.

The 2nd PDF is from the Ministry of Culture that approves it- https://static.pib.gov.in/WriteReadData/specificdocs/documents/2024/oct/doc2024104409001.pdf

A 500-paged document was submitted to the Ministry and one of the heads sitting in Delhi who is a Kannadiga had at first denied without looking at the proofs but then himself was convinced after looking at all the proofs. And this was told himself by the Marathi experts coordinator named Hari Narke who is now no more. Rightmostdoor6 (talk) 10:37, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

With due respect, problem will be solved if you provide the details of earliest attestation of written inscription found for Marathi -

1. The first link is an article about the claims of Mr. Narke as to what he considers to be correct

2. Second article is a Govt press release - which cannot be considered Kataariveera (talk) 10:55, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

Those are the evidences he provided. I shared it so that you get an idea of the evidences he provided. The 2nd link is from the Government. But why cannot it be considered since they are the same body that has granted Marathi classical status and it is their document only. The 1st inscription is the Naneghat inscription found in Junnar that has the term 'Marathino' in it. It is 2,200 years old at the least. This is being said by all the experts not me. Rightmostdoor6 (talk) 11:00, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

Please share any article regarding Naneghat inscription Kataariveera (talk) 14:52, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

Hello, I'm RangersRus. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your contribution to List of highest-grossing Kannada films have been undone because they did not appear constructive. Pinkvilla and India Today are reliable sources per WP:ICTFSOURCES and when sources differ, we should show all the range and not remove them. RangersRus (talk) 11:45, 22 November 2024 (UTC)

Please check the talk page on KGF2 regarding this Kataariveera (talk) 12:43, 22 November 2024 (UTC)

Yes I will check on Pinkvilla source and have that fixed. RangersRus (talk) 14:12, 22 November 2024 (UTC)

Ok I checked and this source is dated Dec 22, 2022 but the one on the page is Published on Mar 06, 2023. It is common for editors make a typo and then later fix it with update. RangersRus (talk) 14:27, 22 November 2024 (UTC)

But question is why 1200 cannot be considered when the difference is just 1% (13 crores). This figure of 1187 is not a huge Difference from 1200 Which has been cited by Most of the other reliable sources. Pinkvilla no doubt is a reliable source but should only 1 site be used as a base for giving a range when the figure quoted by them is just 1% less than as many as 6 other reliable source? Kataariveera (talk) 16:31, 22 November 2024 (UTC)

This is not how range works. 13 crore is still a lot of difference and going by the figures in the sources, a range is made from lowest figure in the source to the maximum in another source and all others figures that fall in between. Even say a scenario, the lowest was 1187 by source and highest figure was 1200 by another source, still the range will have to show the range from 1187 to 1200. You can not just select 1200 and ignore 1187, saying that it is just 1% difference. RangersRus (talk) 17:38, 22 November 2024 (UTC)

Isnt News18 a reliable source? It says 1500... so Shouldnt the range be 1187 to 1500? Kataariveera (talk) 01:46, 23 November 2024 (UTC)
