‘Sirivennela’ Seetharama Shastri is the pride of Tollywood. He raised the standards of Telugu cinema lyrics to highest peaks. There has always been a subject of debate in film circles about partiality of Shastri Garu towards director Krishna Vamsi. Once again the audio release of ‘Mogudu’ brought this debate to fore because of lyrical value in the film.
Guessing this topic early on, Shastri Garu has given an explanation saying ‘For a writer, every director and every song holds the same responsibility. Krishna Vamsi is nothing special for me. All the directors are equal and there is no scope of partiality.’ Well, it is left for audience and music lovers to gauge the truth in this statement.
