In Part-3 of our conversation with Mr. V.K. Murthy we talk about his work with Guru Dutt. Mr. Murthy worked with Guru Dutt for almost 10 years including Pyaasa, Kagaaz Ke Phool, Sahib, Bibi Aur Ghulam and others.
In this episode he discusses how Guru Dutt made his films. Dialogs were often written on the sets by Guru Dutt’s favorite dialog writer Abrar Alvi, and it was not uncommon to reshoot scene. Guru Dutt was a perfectionist and demanded the best out of everybody.
Mr. Murthy also discusses about his signature in all of Guru Dutt’s films: sambrani.
Did you know that Mr. Murthy was part of the crew of Guns of Navronne? How did that happen? Tune in to find out.

Kamlaji,
It is gratifying to listen to a legendary cinematogropher V K Murthy( now a Dadasaheb Phalke winner). Thank you for recording this interesting interview. Amusing part being, the constant background noise of granite cutting…. Next time you interview, please find a good noise free environment….
