Abstract

Kannada film industry is indeed an extension of Kannada theatre. The early film personalities had been actively involved in Kannada theatre world. The Kannada film industry had to struggle during 1929 � 1934. Early Kannada films had to struggle against western culture. The film theatres were not equipped well to exhibit silent and talkie films to the audience. The Kannada film industry had recovered from certain setbacks after 1941. About 24 films were made in Kannada after independence. In1950s, Kannada film industry had not gained any identity from the point of view of production of commercial and art films. During 1971 � 1980 several art films and new wave films were made in Kannada. About 138 Kannada films were produced during the decade of 1970s. The decade of 1980s witnessed the production of a large number of commercial Kannada films. There were remarkable economic changes and modifications during 1991 � 2000 in the entire world. Most of the Kannada films were commercial films based on the technique of re-make. In the new millennium, Kannada film industry has grown remarkably. About 80 to 100 films were made every year in Kannada. Kannada film industry has carved a niche for itself in the national and international film avenues.
