Cinemaazi remembers C V Sridhar on his birth anniversary
Showing remarkable dexterity across genres, C V Sridhar was an immensely successful director in Tamil, Telugu and Hindi cinemas. Eschewing the more traditional dialogue style, he ensured that is films had breezy and accessible lines. He also favoured location shooting over the more conventional studio sites. Specialising in romances, he wanted to utilise the visual aspect of cinema more, rather than solely relying on dialogues. His directorial debut Kalyana Parisu (1959) went on to be regarded as one of the best Tamil films ever made. He was born on 22 July, 1933.
