The Telugian who aspired for the unity of the Telugu people! The great man who left his indelible mark in politics, proclaiming that the grievances of the Telugu people must be heard! Our beloved brother, Nandamuri Taraka Rama Rao, the hero and great leader who lives forever in our hearts.
The NTR Cine Vajrotsava (Diamond Jubilee of NTR's film career) celebrations are being held grandly in various countries across the world. Recently, these celebrations took place in Saudi Arabia under the auspices of the "Saudi Arabia Telugu Federation." The chief guests at this event included Nandamuri Ramakrishna, son of Nandamuri Taraka Rama Rao; Mr. T.D. Janardhan, Chairman of the NTR Literature Committee and Telugu Desam Politburo member; prominent film actress Prabha; Nandamuri Banerjee; Nandamuri Bijili; and others. The guests were felicitated with shawls and mementos at the event. The celebrations were organized under the leadership of Mr. Koneru Uma Maheshwara Rao, President of the Saudi Arabia Telugu Federation; Event Chair Mr. Kandibedala Varaprasad; and with the cooperation of the executive committee members of the "Saudi Arabia Telugu Federation" and other Telugu organizations.
Speaking at the event, Mr. T.D. Janardhan, Chairman of the NTR Literature Committee and Telugu Desam Politburo member, said, "We celebrated our elder brother's birth centenary worldwide. Now, we are celebrating the NTR Cine Vajrotsava in every country. Our elder brother left an indelible mark in both politics and cinema. We know Rama and Krishna, as well as the Sharavana era and the Shalivahana kings. After that, the Telugu people will forever remember and hold in their hearts only NTR. Through his films, he conveyed good messages to society. It's more accurate to say that NTR lived his roles in films rather than just acting in them. He practiced what he preached in politics. As a people's leader, he won hearts."
Nandamuri Banerjee said, "I am happy to participate in the NTR Cine Vajrotsava celebrations. My thanks to the Saudi Arabia Telugu Federation for organizing such a grand event. No other actor can reach the fame that NTR achieved in the film industry. He used to live in the characters he portrayed. He understood those characters. He impressed the audience by playing many diverse roles in a single film. NTR achieved many feats on the silver screen that were impossible for another actor."
Prominent actress Prabha said, "I am grateful to all the NTR fans who are showing me so much love and respect just because I was one of NTR's heroines. Mr. T.D. Janardhan remembered me and invited me to this event. I thank him for that. Writing the book 'Tarakaramam' with many special aspects of NTR's life is commendable. As an actor, NTR remains unforgettable in the hearts of the audience through his many mythological, social, and folk roles. He is remembered for his roles as Rama, Krishna, Ravanasura, Duryodhana, and many other mythological characters. NTR's children are also carrying his legacy forward with great honor. It is a matter of pride for all of us that Purandeswari Garu is at a high level in Delhi politics. My thanks to the Saudi Arabia Telugu Federation for organizing such a grand event."
Speaking on the occasion, NTR's son, Nandamuri Ramakrishna, said, "Our Nandamuri family is overwhelmed by the love and affection you are showing us. We are happy that the NTR Cine Vajrotsava celebrations are being held worldwide. My thanks to the Saudi Arabia Telugu Federation for organizing such a grand event. Thanks to the committee members of the Saudi Arabia Telugu Federation, Uma Maheshwara Rao, and others. My gratitude to Mr. T.D. Janardhan, Chairman of the NTR Literature Committee, who is leading the NTR Cine Vajrotsava celebrations in various countries. As the saying goes, 'We are the Telugu race, a race full of light,' wherever our Telugu people are in the world, we showcase our Telugu brilliance, Telugu honor, and uniqueness. As an actor, NTR showed unparalleled acting in many mythological, social, and folk roles. He became a dictionary for every character he portrayed."
