YVS express his opinion on “OKKA MAGADU”

I am a great heart favorite to Mr.k.Raghavendra rao, director, since my days in gudivada as president of NTR’s fans association. I also started K Raghavendra Rao fans association and corresponded with him regularly. People go to theatres just to watch songs of K Raghavendra Rao’s films. I am hugely inspired by him. Listening to his songs enhanced my love for music. Lucky I joined K Raghavendra Rao as assistant director and it gave me lot of scope to song picturisation because I observed K Raghavendra Rao’s work from close quarters.

Music is the heart for any movie. The success of the movie depends on the mosic. Actually, my song picturization was always appreciated right from my first film Sri Seeta Ramula Kalyanam Chootamu Rarandi to Devadasu. I have created my own style in unusual song picturization. I did four films with M.M. Keeravani, who is my all time favorite music director. Ramana Gogula composed extraordinary music for Yuvaraju. Chakri gave blockbuster music for Devadasu, which ran for 175 days in 17 centres.

When music has become such an important ingredient of film’s success, I take extreme precautions while signing a music director. Mani Sharma is an excellent music director with great specialization in keyboard. He is also exceptionally good at re-recording and background score. He has delivered industry hits with almost all leading heroes of Telugu cinema. His music caters to classes and masses alike. Mani Sharma has given extraordinary music for Okka Magadu. He has already composed six songs out of seven songs for Okka Magadu. For a high profile film like Okka Magadu, it is very important to have music that gives an instant kick. The music of Okka Magadu is going to be huge chartbuster. One listening is enough to judge how good Okka Magadu songs are? After working with Mani Sharma, I realized that he has excellent grip on tunes, orchestra and rhythm. Okka Magadu music will surpass the music composed for all my six films. Mani sarma is one of the best music directors for this millennium. Really he did an excellent job for this movie. Hats off to Mani Sharma!
