    Its an EPIC ! The 1st one of its kind and the trend was later followed across all the film industries in India

    What a debut Direction... Thats y hes called Crazystar... V.Ravichandran spent 1.5crores which was the costiest for that period, Premaloka ran for 1year in Kapali Theatre Bangalore. My younger brother who is in his 20s now,pretty much new age film buff, a music lover too, has searched Premaloks songs,Film DVD, also Ranadheera film, Has put them into his all time collections and also his cell phone and car pen drive has the hit songs running. Saying this coz its the power of music and a quality film to be alive throughout the generations and across the time periods ! There is nothing minus, Way ahead of its time, Marvellous songs which recorded over 8 lakh cassettes sold, Re-released many times and all time blockbuster in Kannada film Industry. Till the 100th day, a normal turn out was observed. But once the Doordharshan aired the Video song "Eee nimbe hanninanhta hudugi bandlu" and then that one song made de magic again, and people just flocked and made it a run through for a year ! Hamsaleka , A musical university of Kannada was intoduced by Ravichandran here and Also Juhi Chawla, who later became a legend in Bollywood. A notable point, Ambarish, Vishnuvardhan, Srinath, Tiger PRabhakar, Lokesh, Leelavathi were also in the cast of the movie. The movie had all richness from Imported Yamahas,rich sets,awesome songs,brilliant screenplay and direction.It marked the way for story telling in the songs, A must watch for all Lovers and cinema lovers !

    The movie that revolutionized romance in Indian Cinema

    You have seen QSQT, u have seen DDLJ, u have seen Maine Pyar Kiya, but if you have not seen Prema Loka, then u haven't seen the movie that started the trend which was followed by the romantic movie makers all over India. Prema Loka has a very fresh and lively look to it and considering that it was shot in 1987, it was way ahead of its time. Ravichandran as the débutant director and actor is wonderful in the movie. Juhi Chawla, who went on to act in some of the blockbuster Hindi movies,is at her pretty and bubbly best. Ravichandran has taken every minute detail into consideration. This is probably the first movie in India which truly made a fashion statement. He also imported a Honda bike, for the movie.

    No conversation about Prema Loka is complete without talking about Hamsalekha who completely took the music world by surprise, with his unconventional and youthful songs which did not follow the regular Indian song format of "anthra" and "mukhda". People still sit up watch when these songs are aired on TV.

    If you haven't seen the movie, make sure that u watch it. Its one of the milestones in Kannada film industry
