Come April 17th this year, and Kannada Film Industry's famous star Ravichandran is unveiling his plans for what he calls "for the new millennium". The day is of great significance for Ravichandran as that was the day on which his late father and his inspiration Late N.Veeraswamy was born. "What better way to pay tributes to a great visionary, dreamer and courageous person than starting all the institutions that I have built for the Industry on the day on which he was born", says Ravichandran. On that day Ravichandran has made plans for inauguration of Eswari DTS Studio and Eswari Recording Studio, which has virtually taken sweat out of him. "It is since a week that I have slept. I am completely focussed on my programmes of April 17. I will also be meeting the Technical people connected to DTS Studio in another one hour" said Ravichandran a week ago. Alongside thee preparation shooting rehearsals were going on for "Preetsona Baa" which will see his brother Balaji making a debut in the Industry. Ravichandran has written the story and screenplay of this film, besides composing music and involving himself in Direction. On the same day evening, Ravichandran has arranged for the release of Audio Cassette of "Oh, Nanna Nalle" which will be released by the Eswari Audio. Ravichandran is now reviving Eswari Audio which was started by him earlier, and which was in limbo after some time.

" I have always maintained that my father was a dreamer and had the courageous ability to take risks. But for his courage, I would not have been what I am today. That is because he backed me entirely while directing "Prema Loka", and

never cared for the mounting expenses while making the film. He had courage and confidence to back a good project even if it were to be with a new comer. Vishnuvardhan was also introduced with a film of Eswari Banner. ("Nagara Haavu"). Similarly, it was my father who made "Chakravyuha" with Ambareesh without bothering about the production expenses involved. He was a real godfather of this Industry and many disputes among the people of the industry were settled in his office chamber. My father's words were always considered with respect and obedience by the Industry people. Therefore, it is in the fitness of things that I am launching all the major projects of my father on April 17" says Ravichandran.
Ravichandran also said that his father was a self made man and rose to become one of the biggest producers in the country. "He had produced films in Kannada, Tamil and Hindi with Superstars like Dr. Raj Kumar, Rajnikanth, Amithabh Bachchan and Shivaji Ganeshan. He started his life as an ordinary office boy and with sheer determination and hard work achieved unparalleled success. He faced failures, but had never lost his confidence and courage" said Ravichandran.
