Interesting facts
Amruthavarshini is a 1997 Indian Kannada-language romantic thriller film written, photographed and directed by Dinesh Baboo. It stars Suhasini, Ramesh Aravind and Sarath Babu. Nivedita Jain appears in a cameo role. It features Ramesh Arvind playing a negative role for which he was widely praised. The film revolves around the three central characters of a husband (Sharath), wife (Suhasini) and a friend (Ramesh) who intrudes into the couple's life and turns their life into tragic events.
Production
Dinesh Baboo prepared the story in 1979. In 1987-88, he met Suhasini Maniratnam and narrated the story of Amruthavarshini; however, that meeting ended up in the film Suprabhatha (1988). Suhasini called Dinesh Baboo while he was in Kerala about producer Jayashreedevi, who was looking for a director-cum-cinematographer for their next venture. Baboo did not like the director's script and he told her the story of Amruthavarshini.
