->Dear WCTN Member!

->Some members have complained---legitimately---of an obscene post
->from a member in the last digest! While it is possible to edit
->such post, the post in question was written in transliterated
->Telugu and was very long! The obscenities in it were embedded
->in the text. I had no precise way of determining which part
->of it is obscene and which part is a legitimate free expression.
->As you are all aware, WCTN digests are unmoderated. We want
->to keep to that in letter and spirit. Sometimes we may have
->to tolerate some unusual happenings in the name of free
->expression! It is desirable to do so and as an editor of
->the digests, I should act in a way that this freedom of
->thought and expression is never abridged! I request you
->again to exercise individual moderation so that my editing
->task becomes simpler! I am sure all of you subscribe to these
->notion! This is only a warm and respectful reminder!
->
->In future I will be a little more careful, but consistent with
->our desire for an unmoderated digests!
->
->with warm regards
->KT Narayana

Dear Editor,
As I made it clear in my earlier letter this is not a medium for letting out
frustrations on other people
We never complained before because this time the gravity of the situation
demands more serious action and if you are not able to take it there is no
point in having a net as it grossly violates the rules.
May I give you a hint about the repercussions of publishing that stupid
article ?
I will let you know of that later
In the guise of free expressions you are not supposed to publish all trash
like this
Please be reminded of this

Subject: couple of recent film songs

7/24/92

Greetings!

I have posted a number of "old" film songs previously. While many of us feel
nostalgic about the songs we grew up on, some of the more recent ones are
quite melodious too and need some attention. I am aware of the arguments some
of you made about posting film songs but I tend to agree with the counter
arguments that other readers have made. Without repeating them, let me go
ahead and post a couple of songs I find quite melodious. Unfortunately, the
lyrics are not exactly pleasing but those readers that have been busy humming
these tunes but don't know the words may find them useful. So, here they are:


1. From Jagadeka Veerudu - Athiloka Sundari

Abba nee thiyyanee debba - entho kammagaa undiro yabba
Amma nee nunnanee bugga - entha lethagaa unnade mogga
Vayyaaraala velluvaa - vaatesthunte vaarevaa
Purushullonaa pungavaa - pulakinthosthe aagava ||

Chitapata nadumula oopulo oka irusuna varasalu kalavagaa
Murisina kasikasi vayasulo oka edanasa padanisa kaladugaa
Kaadantoone kalabadu - adi ledantoone mudipadu
Emantunnaa madanudu thega preminchaakaa vadaladu
Choosthaa sogasu dosthaa - vayasu nilabadu kougita ||

Adagaka adigina devito - lipi chilipiga mudirina kavithagaa
Adi vini adimina shokulo puri vidichina nemaliki savathigaa
Ninne naavi pedavulu - avi nedainaayi madhuvulu
Rendunnaayi thanuvulu - avi repavvaali manuvulu
Vasthaa valachi vasthaa - manaku mudirenu mucchata ||

2. From Bobbili Raaja

Balapam patti bhaama ballo a-aa i-ii nerchukuntaa
Pantham patti prema ollo aahaa oho paadukuntaa
Am-ahaa antaa ammadoo - kammahaa undetappudoo
Bujji paapaayee - paaTaalu nerpinchu paitamma pranayaalatho
Sarasaminka ekkuvaithe Cha-Cha Chi-Chi thappadayyo
Apude itta prema ballo aithe giithe endukayyo
Acchule ayyaayippudoo - hallullo hallo eppudoo ||

Ettaa gunde paapaa tholi choope chuttesthunte
Edo kottha oope etu vaipo nettesthunte
undundee e konchem oka navve thaakuthondi
Motthamgaa prapancham maha gammatthugaa vundi
Premante inthenemo baavunde emainaa
Naakkoodaa kotthenayyo em cheddaam ee painaa
Kaasthainaa kangaaru thaggaali kaadannu em chesinaa ||

Thuppallo thupaakee sadi ettaa reguthundo
Reppallo rahasyam padi attaa ayyindayyo
Kommallo kukoole mana sneham koruthunte
Kondallo ekole mana mettaa unnaamante
Adivanthaa atthaarille neekainaa naakaina
Everevaro atthaa maama varasettaa thelisene
Andaakaa aa marri atthamma ee maddi maamanuko ||

(in repetetion of the pallavi, the "bujji paapaayee" line is replaced by the
female singer's new line : Picchi bujjaayee allarlu thagginchi ollona
bajjovayyo)

Enjoy if you can!

Subject: FATHER

Hi Everybody,
I have my father, 67 years old, staying with me, since Feb 92. He would be
here with us till next Feb. He is really getting bored at home. I stay
at Cupertino, California. Basically, he wants to talk to people of his age.
We have around 300 Telugu books at our home. He has completed all of them.
He wants to go back to India because he doesn't have friends here. He can
speak only Telugu and Tamil. We don't want him to go back. Is anybody
having any people who are aged and live around Cupertino and who can become good
friends to my father? Or, is there any other solution? I am sure some more
people would have faced the same problems. If any body replies, I will really
appreciate.
Thanks,
JUBV Prasad

This legend about hanuman is not found in valmiki's ramayana.Interestingly
it is part of the thailand's version of ramayana(ramakriti) and some
other versions in indian vernaculars.

Avante chevi kosukuno vaarilo nenu okadini.

This song "Choosanu poddanta" is from the film
"Cheekati Velugulu" starring Krishna, Vanishri & padmapriya.
Music is by Chakravarti and directed by KS Prakasha Rao, father
of director K Raghavendra Rao and K Bapaiah.
Picturised on Krishna and PadmaPriya.

The movie, made in 1977 is based on one more Telugu hit
"Pavitra Bandham" an ANR-Vanishri-Kanchana starrer.

In the same film there is one more melodious song
written by Sri Devulapalli Venkata Krishna Sastri..

Eikamaina Hrudayaalalo........."

Anybody interested in the lyrics of the song ?

Subject: To the Editor(please post)

Dear Sir,

	I'm very much upset to see such a indecent mail in a culturel
net, and I'm concerned with the net standards as well as the feelings
of Mr: Darbha and Mr: Prabhala.

	If you can send me the original copy of that anonymous mail
I can find out who is that individual, and try to get him expelled from
the use of internet / usenet or bitnet, and from the organization he belongs.
As sending anonymous mails to hurt some one's feelings (even if it is freedom of
expression as mentioned in today's digest's suppliment) is against internet
priniciples and of any legal social digest over internet.

	Again, I request you to send me the copy, and please post this and my
previous mail in the net.(Since we do not intend to apply of the cancelation of
 the WCTN digest)


Sincerely,
Ravikiran Paturi.

Subject: Uluchi

Hi
Somebody asked about Uluchi. I will write what I remember.
Uluchi is Arjuna's wife whose son is Babruvahana. Arjuna marries Uluchi
when he goes on Thirthayatras before he marries Subhadra. Later on, Dharmaraj
performs Ashwamedha yagam where Arjun goes along with the horse. Babru captures
the horse and kills Arjuna in the fight. As soon as he comes to know that Arjuna
is his father, he goes somewhere and fights with a lot of people and gets
Amrutham and saves his father.

All this story is from the movie "Babruvahana" in which NTR acted as Arjuna
and Chalam acted as Babruvahana. I saw this movie in 1964 when I was 8 years
old. I remember this much only. I still remember Krishna's Sudarsana Chakr
chasing some jaint who was troubling Babru who was getting Amrutham.

That's all I remember.
BYE
JUBV Prasad
