Wow imagine if they would have done it .... wonderful link http://www.telugucinema.com/c/publish/movieretrospect/retros pect_geetanjali_1989.php C.L. Narasa Reddy Speaks... Initially, I wanted to remake Maniratnam's Agni Natchattiram in Telugu with Venkatesh and Nagarjuna, but it didn't work out, and we dubbed it as Gharshana. At that time, Nagarjuna was ready to do a film with Maniratnam. And Mani had a basic story line based on Young Die First, an English movie in which both the male and female lead know that they're going to die soon. Based on that single line, he prepared the story and screenplay. Geethanjali is the name of a Delhi-based 11-year old girl who was suffering from cancer and wrote her emotions in a diary that got printed at that time. Mani was moved emotionally when he read those diary pages, and wanted to name his film, and the heroine, after the little girl. |
