“Even if Dr Kamal Hassan comes and act in my direction I don’t get frightened. For me only work is important and my perception is very important! Working with super power star Puneeth Rajakumar I had no fear at all. I was so cool throughout”, says ‘Dhuniya’ Soori speaking to IndiaGlitz after the audio release in Hotel Le Meridian of his film ‘Jackie’.
“‘I fear only woman’. That is a respect for me. I give such a huge respect to mother like Smt Parvathamma Rajakumar. Conversing with others for me is very easy. My nature is like that. I have my ‘Doddanna’ (big brother) Yogaraj Bhat who advises me right things and I consult him now and then”, he adds.
From this film ‘Jackie’ songs he would reach to double his fee of Rs.75000 per song. He was Rs.40000 in Junglee song ‘Hale Paper Hale Kabbina….’, in Jackie he has created a wonder. “I don’t know how goddess Saraswathi so easily passes on my ordinary pencils while writing the lyrics”, wonders Soori.
“I prepared my concept in my second film that is ‘Inthi Ninna Preethiya’ but found a boulder shock in the box office. Instead of frying ‘Vada’ in my house I thought of frying it in the market place to sell. That is ‘Junglee’ people received it. The very purpose of having ‘Bonda shop’ in the market place is to make business. Now I am having only that aspect in my mind. So ‘Jackie’ is a ‘Gari Gari Bonda’ that will be liked by the audience. There is only slight experiment in this film”, says Soori.
When Soori’s attention was drawn on serious films that knock the doors of national awards committee he said he requires some more time. “I want to strengthen my base first. Then I would think of awards and honors at the national level”.
