Welcome to my funny assistant series! I have many funny instances to share with you all. Let me start with this one. As you all know us artists have our own staff. They are like my second family on the sets. We spend around 12 to 15 hours on sets, sometimes even 24 hours, based on the work schedule.
I had an assistant who was supposed to report to me at my home in the morning. While he was on his way, I called him and asked him to get Chittara magazine. He asked me if I needed one or two. “Why two? Only one is enough.” He finally arrived and handed me a cover. I noticed newspaper creases inside it. I wondered what in the world he had brought. “What is this?” I asked him. He did not respond to me. We were getting ready for a shoot and he was busy keeping things in the car. I opened the paper and guess what was in there ‘ Chitranna’ (Lemon rice.)!!.

This poor fellow had never read a paper or a magazine in his entire life. He mistook “Chitranna” for “Chittara.”. Just then, I recalled him asking me “Madam from where should I bring?” I said “Early morning, you will find them in those small shops by the roadside.”. He got a packet full of Chitranna for me to have at home!!. HA HA HA!.. Even today when I come cross a magazine store or Lemon rice, I remember him 😀

😊 still the question remains why two Lemon rice! I guess you may never have asked him to bring any magazine again? Or he maybhave understood what you actually wanted?
I AM PLANING TO BECOME EITHER PERMANENT ASSISTANT! OR PERSONAL ASSISTANT!(I WILL CONTINUE THIS AFTER SOME TIME)
i understand that beauty is not ‘how we look’ but it is in what & How we do! and it is one of my hobbies that ‘explaining the beauty of anything good in my mind to which i seen in nature/human or anywhere’ but here you have provided a plotform to explain through comments. i have seen some beautiful songs of you like yenacchario, o baby, ethake.., and a trailer of bicchugatti ‘ a poster in which you are in warrior look (like sudeep sir in bahubali, anushka’s arundati look) it has become my fav. pic. too after a pic in which you were in traditional dress of kodava girl as cultural ambassedor of coorg dist.. you know why i am weaker economically bc i have sacrified most time of my life to work for others in a service oriented org. without any self benefit but it came to my mind now that i have to do something for personal benefit too either working or self employment so i am in research of opportunities along with other good businesses research
of very less/zero investment strategies. at this point of time i am requesting u also to pls share any gd ideas in you or if u come across, that could help me & support my thoughts. In this lockdown days, I am getting prepared to take this kind of
research at least part time once the lockdown completes.
Thank you 🙂 sure and wishing you all that is best 🙂
