Smt. Anuradha- my lil sister, emotionally remembered her childhood days in which maa ayyagaru was only the EVER HERO. She also sang a song written by maa ayyagaru. Thanks LIL.sis....
Me, was very excited to announce the news of 'The releasing of 'PADYA SAHITYA SARVASAWAM' of maa ayyagaru on JAYA UGADI function at RAVINDRA BHARATHI on 31st March. I recollected how maa ayyagaru just forgot the big bundle of 500 copies of 'Sivathandavam' published by Acharya Rangacharya in 1960s in the train itself while travelling from Palem to Kadapa. He was of that habit of forgetting the most important things even, once he immerses in KALIDASA, SHAKESPEARE or Vyasa. Many more such Instances r there in his life. I remembered Sri Vallampati Venkata Subbayya-a great critic. I thanked Sri Kompellagaru foe giving this golden oppourtunity to remember maa ayyagaru on his 100th birthday. Friendz...on 31st JAYA UGADI day maa ayyagaru's 'PADYA SAHITYA SARVASWAM' is going to be released. Jai Guru Dutta!

Friendz dears.......I was very very busy yesterday in press preparing the 'Page set up' and font fixing of maa ayyagarus 'PADYA GADYA SARVASWAMS' being published under the most able administration and guidence of Dr Rallabandi Kavitha Prasadgaru - Director Cultural affairs.  Really it is a 'Dream come true' for me that maa ayyagaru's complete works are being released by the Cultural Affairs Dept. Dr.Rallabandigaru  (actually he is  'Rathanalabandi') taking extreme interest in this work. He always says that'This will be 'THE GREAT contribution to the literary field'. Yes yes yes.....This all is happening because Dr. Rallabandigaru is a great admirer of Puttaparthi's works, wisdom and also  personality 'cause he himself is a world known Poet, Avadhani and very innovative in administration and also SARASWATHI SAMARCHANA. He recently choosen the world common dias 'FACEBOOK' for his 'LAKSHA PADYARCHANA'. He asked the world wide TELUGU PADYAM LOVERS to give the 'SAMASYAS' (Puranalu) and he gives the PADYA SAMADHANALU in FC itself. This will be very novel way of using the 'Electronic and NET EXCELLENCES' for a noble cause of 'Meeting all WORLD TELUGISM'; So pl..friendz, rush  fast to give ur 'SAMASYALU" for 'Kavitha Prasadgaru's excellent poetic completions.He is a 'SAMPURNA TELUGU MANASWI'. I wish him 'ALL THE BEST' and 'GREAT SUCCESS'in  this great 'PADYA YAGNA'.I am thankful to him from my core of heart for his cooperation in maa ayyagaru's complete works. There r no words to explain. March month has already entered. Countdown started already.  28th is maa ayyagaru's birthday.Padya sarvasvam is getting ready for release. Gadya bhagam also taking it's final shape. Dates r to be fixed.  Friendz.. Pl. wish for the grand tribute to Puttaparthi (A Writer of Par excellence) maa ayyagaru's centenery celebrations.
