Introduction I am not a scholar in Telugu. Yet, I am deeply interested in Telugu Literature. I strongly feel that I am a blessed one inasmuch as I am introduced to the works of Kavisamrat ViSvanAtha Satyanarayanagaru by the grace of God and that I am able to understand him with the help of the critical commentaries of great men like Dhulipala Srirama Murthy, Tummapudi Kotesvara Rao, JuvvaDi Goutham Rao, Kovela SuprasannAcharya, Kovela Sampatkumaracharya, G.V.Subrahmanyam, VaDali MamdEsvara Rao, Mallampalli Sarabhayya, kEtavarapu RamakotSvaraSAstri and many others. I am truly indebted to all these and I feel that I am such a lesser soul that I am born to enjoy the great works of SrI ViSvanAtha amidst the mundane human activities and that, that is the only useful purpose of my life.
Interests After taking voluntary retirement from Indian Airlines (now Air India), I taught English in various colleges for 13 years. I am now writing for my Telugu Literature blog " nannu-nerungaro " .
Favorite Movies The great Telugu movies of Natayogi Nagayya such as Bhakti POtana, Tyagayya, Yogi Vemana, Gunasumdarikatha, peddamanushulu, mayabazaar, Patalabhairavi and old classics. I bow my head in reverence to Late Vamgara Vemkatasubbayya, whose diction is unparalleled.
Favorite Music Classical music of Dr.Mamgalampalli Balamuralikrishna an the light music of Jikki, Balasarasvati, Bhanumati, S.Varalakshmi, Leela, and Kannamba.
Favorite Books Srimadramayana Kalpavrukshamu, VeyipaDagalu, Short Stories of Madhuramtakam Rajaram.
