20 years of Surya Vamsha: Director S Narayan recalls special moments of the Vishnuvardhan-starrer

The Vishnuvardhan-starrer Surya Vamsha was released on June 15, 2000, and tomorrow marks the 20th anniversary of the film. We spoke to the film's director S Narayan about the blockbuster family drama. 

The veteran director says, “Our film was a sensational hit. It gave breaks to a lot of people. To begin with, Surya Vamsha marked the production debut of Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy. This film came at a time when Vishnuvardhan was a successful actor, with back-to-back hits. Personally, this film gave me the biggest commercial success of my career.” 

Narayan adds that a sequel to Surya Vamsha can be made provided Kumaraswamy is willing to produce it. “If he wants to repeat history with another film like Surya Vamsha, I would try to make his dream come true.”
