Aathreya
Aathreya original name is Kilambi Venkata
Narasimhacharyulu. He is one of the most
celebrated yesteryear lyricists of Telugu
films.His title is -quot;manasu kavi' (poet on
the human soul and heart).
A critic remarked in Telugu:
"Aathreya vrasi janaalani yedipisthaadu,
vraayaka nirmaathalani yedipisthaadu-" (meaning
" By writing, he makes people weep; by not
writing, he makes producers weep.")
Some memorable lines:
Anthaa mattee nani thelusu, adhii oka maayenani
thelusu, thelisi valachi vilapinchutaloo
theeyadanam yevariki telusu?
Aathreya's lyrics had the reputation of making
people weep due to the deep meaning in his
lyrics; this also led to repeat audiences and
hence he was sought after as a lyricist.
However, he was known for the delay in penning
lyrics and thus, throwing filming schedules
haywire and causing heart burn to producers. |
