Uyyale (transl. The Swing) is a 1969 Kannada language romantic drama film directed by N. Lakshminarayan and starring Rajkumar and Kalpana. The film is a direct screen adaptation of the novel of the same name written by the acclaimed novelist Chaduranga (Subramanyaraja Urs).[1][2] The movie presents a delicate tale of the extra-marital love of a woman neglected by her husband reflecting the social and moral laws of married life.[3] Radha is the second wife of an extremely negligent Shesha. However, when Krishna, Shesha's cousin, enters her life, they form a unique bond with each other.
Besides writing the story, Chaduranga also wrote the dialogues for the film and won Karnataka State Film Award for the year 1979 for this story. The soundtrack and original score composed by Vijaya Bhaskar was widely acclaimed and appreciated. Produced by Gopal - Lakshman duo, the film fetched the Karnataka State Film Award for Best Film award for the same year. The film was screened twice at the IFFI Retrospect - once in 1992 and once again in 2019 on the occasion of the 50th year of IFFI.[4] In a small drama sequence, Rajkumar appears as Gautama Buddha and Leelavathi as Kisa Gotami.
