Mahanati, the biopic on legendary actress Savitri, directed by Nag Ashwin stole the hearts of all. People after watching the film got spellbound by the performances of Keerthy Suresh, Dulqer Salman and the rest of the cast. From then on they started digging out unknown secrets of the legendary actress.
At the sametime even celebrities, who are the contemporaries of Savitri started sharing her secrets. While many hailed the filmmakers for the realistic biopic and floral tributes on Savitri, few questioned the makers for twisting and hiding the real facts. Daughter of Gemini Ganesan’s first wife, KV.Chowdhary’s brother’s grand daughter questioned the filmmakers over some scenes.
Now yesteryear actress Rama Prabha too questioned the makers for showing Gemini Ganesan in bad light. She said contrary to what was shown in Mahanati that Gemini was a bad husband, Savitri was at fault all the time. She said Savitri spoiled her married life with her arrogance.Rama Prabha said ‘Gemini Mama was not at fault.I had been with Savitri for ten years. Gemini tried to come closer to Savitri but she never allowed him. I was there when Gemini ran away jumping from the wall and when Savitri unleashed her dogs on him. Savitri spoiled her life due to her obstinate behavior.”
