Garapati Lokeshwari
“Greetings to all. My father was a legendary man who stood peerless. His sons and grandsons are carrying forward his legacy with dedication and achieving star status. Now, his great-grandson is entering the industry. He needs everyone’s encouragement. I hope all of you bless Taraka Rama Rao. Thanks to YVS Chowdary and Geetha garu for introducing him.”
Daggubati Purandeswari
“Greetings to everyone. Today, another generation from the Nandamuri family steps into the Telugu film industry. An artist must undergo great penance. With the blessings of Goddess Saraswati, heights can be achieved. My father was a true artistic devotee, dedicating his life to cinema with discipline. That’s why his name is written in golden letters in Indian cinema. Balakrishna and Harikrishna also left indelible marks. Kalyan Ram and Taraka Rama Rao have also proven themselves. Now another generation is entering. Ram, as we call him, is stepping into the industry. He has the blessings of both Goddess Saraswati and his family. Just as Lord Rama resides in Hanuman’s heart, NTR garu resides in YVS Chowdary’s heart. My heartfelt wishes to Chowdary garu for introducing Ram through the NTR banner. I pray this film becomes a huge success. Ram always has our blessings.”
Nara Bhuvaneshwari
“I wish Nandamuri Taraka Rama Rao, like his great-grandfather, earns name and fame. Our whole family wishes for the same. It’s joyous to see the fourth generation enter the industry. Ram worked hard to prove his talent, and he has the passion to reach great heights. Thanks to producer Geetha garu and director YVS Chowdary for their support. Chowdary garu and his family have always stood by the Nandamuri family. We believe Ram will rise to success. Best wishes to the entire team.”
Mohan Krishna
“Greetings to all. I stepped away from cinema 25 years ago, my last film being ‘Goppinti Alludu’. After 25 years, I am blessed to shoot my great-grandson’s first shot. My father was very fond of my son Janakiram, and it was with deep affection that he named his first son Nandamuri Taraka Rama Rao. That name is a legacy. Ram has a deep love for cinema and worked hard to enter the industry. Chowdary garu recognized his talent and came forward to direct. Congratulations to YVS Chowdary and Geetha garu. I sincerely wish Ram earns fame and reputation.”
Ramakrishna
“Greetings to all. With the blessings of the legendary NTR, Production No.1 under the NTR banner has started. The hero is our grandson. Director Chowdary has come up with a wonderful script. After delivering three back-to-back hits – Seetharama Raju, Lahiri Lahiri Lahirilo, and Seetayya – we hope this new film will also become a blockbuster and bring name and fame to our grandson. Jai NTR!”
Producer Yelamanchili Geetha
“Thanks to Lokeshwari garu, Bhuvaneshwari garu, and Purandeswari garu and all the Nandamuri family members for blessing our Production No.1. With everyone’s blessings, we believe we will release this film successfully.”
Heroine Veena Rao
“Greetings to everyone. We are happy and grateful that Lokeshwari garu, Bhuvaneshwari garu, and Purandeswari garu came and blessed us. We seek your blessings always. We hope the audience blesses our film too.”
Hero Nandamuri Taraka Rama Rao
“Thanks to everyone who came to bless us today. I believe that my great-grandfather NTR garu, my grandfather Harikrishna garu, and my father Janakiram garu will always bless me. I’m overwhelmed that all my family members came here to support me. Media has been very supportive since this project was announced. I thank them all. I believe audience love will guide my journey.”
Director YVS Chowdary
“I will never forget this day in my life. NTR Ghat is like a sacred shrine to me. It is a place of spiritual strength for NTR’s fans. Launching this film here fills me with immense joy. As long as the Telugu race exists, NTR will live on. I am thrilled that the great-grandson who carries his name is launching his film here. It’s not easy to carry that name — anyone can be named, but living up to it in the field is tough. Conducting this event under the guidance of NTR garu’s daughters is a divine feeling — it felt like launching a missile. This is an unforgettable moment. Taraka Rama Rao worked very hard for this. I consider it my fortune to direct this film. Ram has the full support of his family. It is a blessing to have Mohan Krishna garu as the DOP. Ramakrishna garu saying ‘I will be like Harikrishna to you’ brought me great joy. Everyone is backing Ram. As a Nandamuri fan, I truly want him to rise. With a background of Telugu literature, traditions, and Hindu culture, I wrote a strong story with all my effort. I hope you all like it. Please support our hard work. Thank you to the Nandamuri family, the 24 crafts of the film industry, and the media friends who blessed us.”
This film’s music is being composed by Oscar-winner MM Keeravani. Another Oscar-winner, Chandrabose, is penning the lyrics. Renowned dialogue writer Sai Madhav Burra is writing the dialogues. This film promises a spectacular cinematic experience for Telugu cinema lovers.
