Actress Namitha is not dead

The buxom siren is tickled about rumours of her death

    The grapevine went blue-green over news about glam-girl Namitha's suicide. It turned out to be just another nasty rumor about the bodylicious gal. Taking it in her stride, Namitha laughed aloud on hearing news about her own demise.

    The rumour about her suicide spread like wild-fire, citing “acute depression” to be the reason for her “drastic step”. “We don’t know who is spreading all these rumors about Namita,” says a source. "She is hale and hearty and spending time at Ambi Valley, her house in Mumbai.

    The glam doll who's had a good run in the South film industry is currently acting in K S Nageswara Rao's Desadrohi in Telugu and Ilaignan and Maanada Mayilada in Tamil.

    The actress who turned 30 in May is slowly veering away from “sexy roles” and looking for “meaty roles”. And above all, she is enjoying her life to the hilt, adds the source.

Eradane Maduve - Kannada movie review

DIRECTOR Dinesh Baboo
ACTORS Anant Nag, Suhasini, Sharan, Tara, Jennifer Kotwal, Rangayana Raghu, Prem

Kannada producers Suresh and Rajeev Kengeri have come out with another kannada comedy titled Eradaneya Maduve which is released on July 9. Anant Nag and Suhasini Maniratnam play the lead roles. The kannada movie also has Lovely Star Prem, glamorous Jennifer, National award winning actress Tara, Sharan and Rangayana Raghu.

Director Dinesh Baboo to make a kannada film with the simplest of ideas. He may fail at times, but he does come up with a winner every other time. Eradane Maduve has the typical Baboo touch with sharp dialogues, an eye candy setting and the subtle narration of a family drama. Baboo picks a story that unfolds in limited number of locations. In fact, kannada film Eradane Maduve for the most takes place in a single house. But, the director avoids being monotonous.

Anant Nag plays a government official who has been dismissed from service on an alleged bribery charge. His wife (Suhasini), three daughters and brother-in-law (Sharan) treat him with contempt as a result of this.

Nag tries to redeem his pride by faking to have a young girlfriend (Jennifer Kotwal). This leads to disharmony among family members. To get back at her husband, Suhasini fakes an affair with a younger man (Prem). A comedy of errors unfolds.

Dialogues are the high points in this kannada film. They are witty, silly and hilarious, all at the same time. Anant Nag and Suhasini come out with good performances. Jennifer and Rangayana Raghu shine in their limited roles. Tara gets a comic role. However, Sharan seems to be aping comic Sadhu Kokila in his role. The film is worth a watch for its comedy!Download free kannada songs here.
