A Few Verses From Geethaa Chandrika

“You are almost a responsible adult now. I don’t like to tell you what is right. Act responsible and do the right thing.” This is what my father wrote and sent to me on the back of a memo from my college principal’s in which the principal warned my father of severe consequences for my skipping classes. That note from my father served me well back then as his son, just as well as it served me as a father now.
Happy Fathers Day

Sadi Seyako Gaali Sadi Seyaboke: Raja Makutam

సడి సేయకో గాలి సడి సేయబోకే. బడలి ఒడిలో రాజు పవ్వళించేనే.. Watch this video on YouTube రాజ మకుటం లోని ఈ  పాట  చిత్రీకరణ నాకు నచ్చలేదు. డైరెక్టర్ భావభంగం చేసారు అనిపిస్తుంది. విలన్ పాత్ర కనిపించకుండా వుంటే పర్లేదేమో. ఈ  పాటంటే నాకిష్టమని ఎన్నోసార్లు నేను చెప్పాను. అంతే కాదు ఈ  పాటంటే తమకు ఇష్టం అని ఎంతో మంది మగరాయళ్ళు  కూడా చెప్పారు. ఎందుకని ఆలోచిస్తే నాకు అనిపించిన విషయాన్ని నా […]
