Dear Editor,

    You  may be aware that Indian News Network (INN) gives information 
on the present happenings in INDIA. Is it possible for us to have something
like that ( Andhra Pradesh News Network, APNN) to get some info about
the happenings in our state ? Being here, we are completely in dark about
our state. 

Thanks.

Subbarao S.V.S
rao@hpfcmdd.fc.hp.com

(Editor: Actually information from INN is really desirable, because
many of us want to know about current events in India as well as in
AP. From that one can extract AP news specifically.  ...kt)

Someone wrote that the author of the song 'Jaya jaya priya bhaaratha ...'
is Viswanatha Satyanarayana. It is, in fact, Devulapalli Krishna Sastry.

Cheers, Chandra.

Subject: For Telugu Digest

This is the first time I am writing to Telugu digest.
After reading a copy of Telugu digest sent to me by
JUBV Prasad, I felt to share few of my ideas here in
Telugu Digest. I do not know whether there is a format
to be followed for sending the articles to Telugu Digest. 
If I did not follow any of the conventions, please let me 
know to help me to send articles properly in future.

Also I want to get the copy of Telugu Digest 
directly to my email address:

suresh@yesac.ColumbiaSC.NCR.COM

The following are for Telugu Digest:

Subject: Is there a standard for writing Telugu in Roman script?

> avadhanam prashna avaro ....)

Really we have trouble writing Telugu in Roman script (English),
Look at the above sentence, 
the english letter of "a" is used both for
"a" (as in "amma")
"e" (as in "ennava").

Why can not the editors of Telugu Digest suggest a standard for
writing Telugu in English script? Has a standard already 
been proposed? In that case, could any one send me that.

Subject: "Tha" getting removed from Telugu dictionary

Why most of the Telugus mispronounce the letter "Tha" (Tha of kaTha).
Could this be the influence of Tamils, who have a single letter 
for tha, Tha, dha, and Dha sounds. 

Consider these two letters:

                       _     
                      /       
                  _  /
                   \/
                  _____              
                 /     \      This "Tha" as in Katha,                
                |   0   |                      Rathamu, (Daasarathi, Athirathi, Saarathi)
                |   ^   |                      Nath, (Jagannath, viswanath, veerendranath) 
                 \_/|\_/                       etc.
                    |                        
	 
                       _     
                      /       
                  _  /
                   \/
                  _____              
                 /     \                 
                |       |  This is "Dha" as in Dhanassu,
                |   ^   |                      Dharmamu etc.
                 \_/|\_/                       
                    |                        



I do not know why Telugus, even the big heads in Telugu 
literature do not care about the correct writing of this letter.

For instance,
	

Consider the name of Yandamoori Veerendranath - 
The supossedly great novel writer of this decade,  
The so called, 

	" ee dasabdapu nava navalaa chakravarti,"
	" Trilinga desaanni thrilling desamga maarchina uth kan tee ra vu du" -
	
His name appears on(in) his novels, and Weekliesy in two 
different forms

	sometimes as "VEERENDRANADH"

	and 
	
	sometimes as "VEERENDRANATH"

Similarly consdier this song in Bhakta Prahlada (sung by Suseela)

                 _ _
		Narayana Mantram, 
		Srimannarayana Bajanam,

			..

		Nadha Hare,
		Srinadha hare,
		Jagannadha hare,
		
I heard this song many times carefully; she did mispronounce 
the letter "tha" (jagannadha should be pronounced as 
jagannatha). Even in "Tyagayya" of Bapu, Bala subramanyam,
pronounced the letter "tha"  as "dha", the song of "Thyagaraja",

			....

		Dadhi navaneetha  ksheeramulu rucho,

		daasaradhi dyaana bajana sudhaa rasamu rucho
	               ^^^	
				...

ilanti examples kokollalu. Neinu cheppinavi machchuku maatramei.

ViswanAtha Sathyanarayana name appeared always as "ViswAnatha"
not as "ViswanAdha" on his novels. (atleast of the novels I read)

Now the letter "Tha" is almost dying. I hear most often than not, 
the "Tha" is being mispronounced as the sound "dha". This way 
the letter "Tha" will be removed from Telugu language soon. 


Let us all become aware and make other become aware of it, 
lest a letter should "die" for the lack of proper care.

Subject: Jaya jaya jayasong

I have seen Ms. Sita BhAratAla's reply regarding the jaya jaya jaya
priyabhaarata janayitri divya dhaatri..... song's rachayita.
I feel that she is mistaken regarding the author's name,
this famous song is written by Sri Devulapalli Krishna Sastry but not by
Sri Viswanadha Satyanarayana as she claims.

Subject: Neeraajanam Movie    

Hi Friends,

Mr. Madhu, in the last digest, wrote something about Neerajanam Movie.
I want to correct some information.

The movie is produced by Mr. Ramana Murthy who is not  a brother of
Sankarabharanam Somayajulu. He is a different Ramana Murthy.

I met the Producer Ramana Murthy and talked to him before he produced
the Neerajanam Movie.

Also, I wonder wheather the actor Ramana Murthy is really an own brother of
Somayajulu. I know that they are related. Their surnames are the same
which is J and is same as mine. Expansion is also the same.

Now about the movie. THis producer met Ranganayakamma garu in 1988 March
(after the sucess of Abhivandana Movie which got some state award ). He
wanted to produce a movie for her novel "Sweet Home" with Sarath Babu
and Suhasini. They finalized a deal on the rights. After some time,
he changed his mind and wanted to produce a movie for her novel "Krishnaveni".
He bought the rights with a condition that he would produce the moview within
an year, otherwise, he would loose the rights. This is because, some producers
buy the rights on novels and never produce the movie and thus never allow
others to produce the movies with those novels. One example is Aradhana
written by Yaddanapudi Sulochana Rani. Actually, this example is told by
the producer Ramana Murthy in the discussion. Then, he asked Athreya
to write songs for the movie and recorded the songs. He liked the songs.
THen he ignored the novel and asked Yaddanapudi to write a story based
on the songs. He also contributed to the story. Songs became hit, but
the movie was a flop. I did not see the movie.

ly, in my opinion, most of the writings were by Mullapudi. It is the same style
and the same brand of humor
 that appears in "RuNAlandalahari", "Bhagna vInalU Bhashpa kaNAlU", "vikramArku
di mArku simhAsanam kathalu" etc. strictly speaking, this book is not in the sa
me class as his later works. but, it is still good enough.
By the way, it goes without saying that all the drawings were by Bapu. )

finally, two more illustrations of their "word power"
* In an essay on director BN Reddy :" chithra shudhdhI, chiththa shudhdhI" gala
kaLAkArudu..(BN Reddy ).
* In "cine vishwa_rupam" , about cinema : ".... idi boththigA kaLA kAdu. uththi

Subject: Science Books in Telugu

	Does anyone know of any popular science books
	written in Telugu?  For example, has anyone
	written books in the popular language level
	of COSMOS?  I think that Jayant Narlekar has
	written one in English.

	I would like a good source for proper translation
	of English scientific words.  I found Sankaranarayan
	to be inaccurate in places, but this is because
	it is a popular dictionary and not a scientific one.

	Hema
