About Ramana

Mullapudi Venkatramana, the author and satirist that Andhra Pradesh adores, has lived a full life. Right from running away to Madras, to finding odd writing jobs, to being a self-taught business man, the gentle giant is a fount of experiences, optimism, and sage observations. The vagaries of life simply encouraged the writer in him to push the envelope in his creative efforts, the result being his work revered as the founding blocks of Telugu literature.

Fearlessly moving into the film world, Ramana and Bapu have launched many a modern-day hero and heroine, where his penmanship has slain many an evil villain. And where the gods speak in many of the duo's mythological essays, Ramana's grasp of detail and turn of conversation leaves one wondering if the man was truly a bystander overhearing such dialogues in real life. Needless to say, Bapu lights up the screen, directing such powerful creativity.

As they say, it is the moments in life that captured in man's vivid art form that stays the test of time. Ramana gives the world his art in words - true-to-life, ironical, yet innocently funny. Spend an evening with him to discover only, that he is no different from his biographical persona: straight-faced, gentle and very, honestly funny.
