This is not the first screen appearance for the wife of Infosys founder N.R.Narayana Murthy, though. In the latest movie, Murty, also a well-known writer in Kannada and English, plays the role of a judge.
Murty said she was not at all keen to act in the movie but bowed to requests from producer M.Ramesh, whom she called a gentleman she has long known. "Ramesh has built all the Foundation's buildings, and requested me to act in his movie. And, that's how I agreed," she said.
Murty said she spent some time on a weekend for acting and dubbing. In the earlier movies too, she played a judge.
Earlier, she has acted in Kannada movies, 'Prarthane' and 'Preethi Illada Mele'.
