Justice V S Malimath, former chief justice of Karnataka and Kerala High Courts, conferred the film icon with ‘Anmol Ratan, Lifetime Achievement Award’ at a function organized here last night by the Vintage Film-Music Lovers’ Association.
Going down the memory lane, the 85-year-old movie veteran nostalgically recalled his trip to Mysore to ‘convince’ writer R K Narayan on making a film version of his novel Guide. That trip is still “green in my memory”, he said. He exhorted Bangaloreans to keep their ambitions alive and march forward in the global arena.
