Durga garu,
I downloaded the interview parts and enjoyed listening to one of the greatest personalities AP had produced. ANR may not have mass following, partly his own conviction that ‘natana’ is an art, and do the best you can.
He shares some of his beliefs and while doing so, he does with elegance, honesty and without any boast.
KVReddy, Pingali and Nagareddi & Chakrapani produced ever enjoyable movies and all time hits. In contrast, Adurti, Athreya and Akkineni or Jagapati Pictures, Suresh Movies highly relying on Athreya produced many real life pictures.
While ANR has mentioned 50% of his fame goes to Ghantasala, one can equally put no less contribution of Athreya in making ANR songs and dialogues classic, philosophical that continue to pound the sensitive hearts of many Telugu people across the globe.
We must thank you Durga garu, for your efforts in producing yet another wonderful interview. Thanks due for TORI too for continuing to put resources to produce good programs.
Mohan garu,
