Mysore/Mysuru: A memorial for late actor “Sahasa Simha” Dr. Vishnuvardhan in Mysuru will finally be a reality and the foundation stone will be laid in August. In July last year, Dr. Vishnuvardhan’s wife Bharathi Vishnuvardhan performed Bhoomi Puja at Halalu village, Kasaba Hobli near Udbur on Manandawadi Road where the State Government has sanctioned 6.5 acres of land.
Vishnuvardhan is a part of the triumvirate of Kannada cinema along with Dr. Rajkumar and Ambarish and his family and fans were frustrated with the delay by the Government in building the Memorial. The actor died on Dec. 30, 2009 and Mysuru is his native. Dr. Vishnuvardhan had carved a niche in Kannada cinema by donning various roles in over 200 films.
