Short Film On Bayya Mallige To Be Released On 15th May!

“Bayya Mallige” is a Tulu movie which released four decades ago. The film had “Jayamala” and Pandari Bai in pivotal roles. A short film on Bayya Mallige will be released on 15th May. Jayamala shared her thoughts to a leading daily. She said, "I have acted in four Tulu movies and I don't think they are available in their original form today. Acclaimed films like Kaasdaye Kandani are still remembered by lovers of Tulu cinema, but its negatives, too are lost with the passage of time. Regional films have to any way fight hard to get noticed and people fail to understand that they are the true representatives of the culture and ethos of a land. I'm glad people are coming forward with such innovative initiatives to preserve the golden works of Tulu cinema. It is definitely a matter of great pride. Besides, the industry is growing at a healthy rate with more youngsters coming in and I shall always be there to support them. I'm constantly rooting for my mother tongue because I want Tulu movies also to get a subsidy and all other perks that are accorded to Kannada films."
