Well, well, we thought producer M N Kumar's astuteness was bang on when he announced that he would wait till after Shivarajkumar's 'Jogaiah' released to release his production in four years, 'Bhadra'. The Prajwal Devaraj-Daisy Shaw starrer took eight long months to complete even as the director Mahesh Rao's other film starring Prajwal, 'Murali Meets Meera' released to much acclaim.

Kumar reasoned that the delay was mainly because it required many technical add-ons. However, it has now emerged that Kumar was generous towards his hero Prajwal, whose film with Digant, 'Mr Duplicate' is releasing next week.

Unlike the producers of 'Dan Dhana Dan' and 'I am sorry…Matthe Banni Preethsona' starring Lovely Star Prem Kumar, M N Kumar, with his decision, has allowed a decent run for 'Mr Duplicate' before releasing his own.

Will other producers take note?
