There were reports that veteran actor Ananthnag has apologised to his fans for acting in 'Plus' which was released last month. Ananthnag had pinned lot of hopes on the film, but the film proved out to be a damp squib when released. So, Ananthnag had apologised to his fans for making them sad. Ananthnag clarified why he had to apologise to his fanse.

'I got a really grand publicity in the film and the makers had used my photos to woo the audience. Many people came to the film seeing my new look and photos. They had pinned a lot of hopes on the film. However, the film failed to live upto people's expectations. I still say the film had a good storyline, but the film was messed up in the editing table. After seeing the film, I had given some suggestions to shorten the film. There were many lengthy scenes and people nowadays don't see such long films. But the makers didn't take my suggestions. The film flopped. My role was good. Overall it didn't have any strength. So, I apologised to my fans' says Ananthnag.

ಶಿರಾಡಿಘಾಟ್, ಇದು ಎರಡು ವರ್ಷದ ಹಿಂದೆ ಶುರುವಾಗಿದ್ದ ಸಿನಿಮಾ. ಎಲ್ಲ ಅಂದುಕೊಂಡಂತೆ ಆಗಿದ್ದರೆ, ಇಷ್ಟು ಹೊತ್ತಿಗೆ ಚಿತ್ರ ಚಿತ್ರಮಂದಿರಗಳಿಗೆ ಲಗ್ಗೆಯಿಡಬೇಕಿತ್ತು. ಆದರೆ, ಮಧ್ಯೆ ಏನೇನೋ ಆಗಿ, ಚಿತ್ರದ ತಂತ್ರಜ್ಞರಿಗೆ ಅಪಘಾತವಾಗಿ ಆಸ್ಪತ್ರೆ ಸೇರಿದರು. ಇಬ್ಬರು ಸಾವನ್ನಪ್ಪಿದರು. ನಿರ್ಮಾಪಕರು ತಲೆ ಮೇಲೆ ಕೈಹೊತ್ತು ಕುಳಿತರು. 

ಹಾಗೆ ನಿಂತುಹೋಗಿದ್ದ ಆ ಸಿನಿಮಾಗೆ, ಈಗ ಮತ್ತೆ ಜೀವ ಬಂದಿದೆ. ಕಥೆ, ಚಿತ್ರಕಥೆ, ನಿರ್ದೇಶಕ ಎಲ್ಲರೂ ಬದಲಾಗಿದ್ದಾರೆ. ನಿರ್ಮಾಪಕರು ಮಾತ್ರ ಅವರೇ. ಉಮೇಶ್ ಸಕ್ಕರೆನಾಡು. ನಿರ್ದೇಶಕರಾಗಿ ಗಡ್ಡ ವಿಜಿ ಬಂದಿದ್ದಾರೆ.

ಗಡ್ಡ ವಿಜಿ ನಿರ್ದೇಶನಕ್ಕೆ ಒಪ್ಪಿದ್ದೇ ನಾನು ಅರ್ಧ ಗೆದ್ದಂತೆ ಎನ್ನುವ ಉಮೇಶ್ ಸಕ್ಕರೆನಾಡು, ತಾವೇ ಚಿತ್ರದ ಹೀರೋ ಕೂಡಾ ಆಗಿದ್ದಾರೆ. ಅಂದಹಾಗೆ ಸಿನಿಮಾ ಮುಗಿಯುವವರೆಗೆ ಅವರು ಶೇವ್ ಮಾಡೋದಿಲ್ಲ. ಗಡ್ಡ ತೆಗೆಯಲ್ಲ. ಹೀರೋ ಆಗಿ ನಟಿಸುತ್ತಿರುವುದರಿಂದ, ಗಡ್ಡಕ್ಕೂ ಚಿತ್ರದಲ್ಲಿ ಅಂಥಾದ್ದೊಂದು ಮಹತ್ವ ಇದೆಯಾ..? ಗಡ್ಡ ವಿಜಿ ಮಾತನಾಡಲ್ಲ.
