Hi All,

అందరికి దీపావళి శుభాకాంక్షలు.

Happy and safe DeepaavaLi to all.

Here I am with a short account of PingaLi and Veturi referred above.

PingaLi Lakshmikantham

Brother of faous PingaLi Nagendra Rao and one of the Pingali-Katuri Kavis.

He wrote Atmalahari in 1973 and Andhra Sahitya Charitra in 1974. But he could not complete the latter.
Andhra Sahitya Charitra is available on net at this site. Those interested can go through.It is well written. The style reminds of old telugu poets.
There is also an account of PingaLi Lakshmikantham in the first few pages. The book is available at Internet Archive: Free Download: ANDHRA SAHITYA CHARITRA



Veturi Sundara Ramamurthy
He is well known in the film world than in the Telugu Sahitya prapancham as such. He is a disciple of Viswanatha Satyanarayana.
Some of the films for which he composed songs are Shankarabharanam, Aakhariporaatam etc.
Manasa veena madhu geetham was composed by him for Pantulamma in 1977.

Ikkada Links istunnaanu..
1. Veturi Sundararama Murthy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
2. Telugu cinema real stars - Velugu Needalu - Veturi by Srinivas Kanchibhotla
He is the relative of well known personality Veturi Prabhakara Sastry.
Somebody can tell about VPS, his works and some sample from his work.

Gurajada Apparao

I am giving a very brief sketch of his life and works. You can find a detailed account in the sites mentioned below.

Perhaps the most celebrated modern Telugu writer, Gurajada Apparao lived most of his life in and around Vijatanagaram which was then better known as KaLinga Rajyam. He his father were connected with the royal family of the princely state of vijayanagaram which made Gurajada to enjoy close relationship with the Royal family during his adulthood. There is dispute over his date of birth as to whether it is Nov.30, 1861 and Sept. 21, 1862; these being calculated from his horoscope. Apparently his descendants prefer the second. His parents were vEnkaTa rAma dAsu and kausalyamma. He had a younger brother by name SyAmala rAvu. His ancestors seems to have relocated to KaLinga Rajyam from GUrajala
(GUrajada) village.

His early education was in ceepurupalli while his father was working there. Unfortunately he lost his father at a very young age; however he continued his education maintaining himself as vaaraalabbaayi. He was generously taken care of by C. Chandrashekhara Sahstry, principal of M R College providing him boarding and lodging free of cost. He completed his matriculation in 1882 and FA in 1884. He was then emplyed as teacher in the same college and went on to raise to great heights from his efforts.

GUrajada is hailed for heralding the Modern Telugu Era. Sri Sri and Viswanatha were among the prominent people who were influenced by him. Among his works well known is Kanyasulkam and listed among the world well-known classic works.

You can get a very good details on Gurajada's life and works from the site given below.

Some more information..

The site below gives the works of the author giving also the focus of each of his major works.
Display Books of this Author - a short sketch about some of his works.

Some of the poems of Gurajada can be found here.
Mahakavi Gurajada - Miscellaneous

I am giving here few lines from his Desa Bhakti.

దేశమును ప్రేమించు మన్నా ,
మంచి యన్నది పెంచు మన్నా;
వట్టి మాతలుకట్టి పెట్టోయ్
గ ట్టి మేల్ తల పెట్టవోయ్ !

KanyaSulkam (bride price) has been translated to English and is available as "Girls for Sale". Read the review in Hindu that appeared in 2008.
The Hindu : Literary Review / Book Review : Differently modern

This is work which portrays a prostitute in a positive sense, helping to overcome the social problems.

Some snippets from Kanyasulkam.

కన్యాశుల్కం లో గిరీశం చెప్పిన పద్యం , poem , కొన్ని "quotation" లు

గిరీశం :
ఖగపతి యమృతము తేగా
భుగ భుగ మని పొంగి చుక్క భూమిని వ్రాలెన్ |
పొగ చెట్టై జన్మించెను


పొగ తరగని వాడు దున్న పోతై పుట్టునూ !!

ఇది బృహన్నారదీయం నాలుగో ఆశ్వాసంలో ఉన్నది. .....
గిరీశం:
....... ఈరాత్రి మధురవానికి పార్టింగ్ విజిట్ యివ్వందీ పోకూడదు .

[రాగ వరసతో పాడును ]

నీ సైటు నాడిలైటు ;

నిన్ను మిన్న
కానకున్న
క్వైటు రెచడ్ ప్లైటు
మూనులేని నైటు .

Hello Narra,

Welcome to this thread. Thanks for dropping here.

You have picked up a gem of a personality.

Tenali Ramakrishna Kavi is a favourite of all especially kids. His stories
filled with just and jest are really good to read.

aabaalagopaalaaniki ee kathalu nechchutaayi

Tenali was known for his wit. I feel it is worth noticing the ways he deals with some of the difficult moments in life.

I remeber the old movie in Telugu, enacted by ANR, NTR, S Varalakshmi etc. Nice songs..too..

Adluri's site gives lot of information on Telugu greats.
Indeed it is a very good site.



Thanks.

hi kalyani,mee thread chala bagundhi. ela ayina manam great telugu personalities ni gurthuchesukuntunnamu.

Have you heard of the Molla Ramayanam? today i am introducing "kadhanayaki molla"

Atukuri Molla (1440 A.D. - 1530 A.D.) was a famous Telugu poetess who wrote Telugu Ramayan. She was popularly known as Molla or Mollamamba.
She was born in a potters' family in Nellore. She was the second woman poet in Telugu only after Tallapaka Timmakka, wife of Annamacharya. She translated SanskritRamayana, story of God Rama into Telugu.
Her father Kesana was a potter of Gopavaram, a village in Kovur Mandal, a few miles north of Nellore in Andhra Pradesh state. He was a Shivite and devotee of Mallikarjuna(an incarnation of Shiva) of Srisailam. He gave her daughter name Molla, that means Jasmine, favourite flower to God, and also called with nickname, Basavi in the respect of Basaveswara(another incarnation of Shiva).
Molla, herself in her book, said that she was the daughter of a potter and claimed Lord Shiva as Guru. It is believed that she had inspiration from Potana, who wrote Bhagavata Purana in telugu. Like him, she was Shivite, but wrote the story of Rama(an incarnation of Vishnu) and also refused to dedicate her Ramayan to any king according to general practice for poets.
According to Varadarajn's book, "Study of Vaishnav Literature", as the news of her popularity was spread, she was invited to Royal court and got an opportunity to recite Ramayana in front of Krishnadevaraya and his poets. She spent her old age at Srisailam in the presence of Lord Mallikarjuna.

She primarily used simple Telugu and only used Sanskrit words very rarely. Any person who knows how to read telugu can understand it. Poets that had written earlier than her like Tikkana and Potana used Sanskrit words freely in their works.

-vijaya

meeru cheppe a great personality kosam chusthunnanu. after that i will introduce another great person
