Samarpane
Samarpane is a 1983 Indian Kannada-language film based on the novel of the same name by Usha Navratnaram, directed by H. R. Bhargava and produced by P. Krishnaraj. The film stars Aarathi in the main role of the female protagonist Sarla opposite Rajeev and Jai Jagadish. The film has musical score by M. Ranga Rao. Saritha had initially been approached for the role but could not accommodate her dates. Aarathi who had previously starred in two movies based on Usha Navratnaram's novels (Hombisilu and Preetisi Nodu) was signed for the role. Ramakrishna who was to play the  antagonist was replaced by Jai Jagdish since Ramakrishna had played the role of Aarathi's son (Ranganayaki) only a couple of years earlier and the director felt that the audience may not accept the pairing. Soundtrack. The music was composed by M. Ranga Rao.
