The families of both the former chief ministers accompanied them to watch the evening show of Baraguru Ramachandrappa’s film “Bhagirathi” at Renukamba mini theatre in Malleswaram. Dinner had also been arranged at the premises, theatre officials said.

Deputy Chief Minister R Ashoka was also present.

Incidently, the show of bonhomie between the duo, who have not been seeing eye-to-eye, comes on Friendship Day.

Yeddyurappa was instrumental in installing and then removing Gowda from the post of chief minister. He had recently spoken against the ‘laxity’ in drought relief work in the State during Gowda’s tenure, which was condemned by the latter.

“We are always friends - 365 days a year”, Gowda told reporters.
