NTR Judged It Right, But Things Went Wrong Later

Multi-hyphenated personality Paruchuri Gopala Krishna has recounted his association with Jr NTR. The celebrated writer who has penned script and written dialogues for numerous films has spilled beans about Tarak’s personality and his heart touching moments with him.

Speaking about an old film of Tarak, which is Allari Ramudu (2002), Paruchuri Gopala Krishna talks about how NTR was right but things went wrong later in connection to the film. Throwing more light on it he says, “When NTR first heard the script, he directly came to Pragathi resorts when he met my brother and me. NTR liked the script and asked to go as it is without any changes”.

Paruchuri Gopala Krishna says that for some reasons he couldn’t be on the sets at the time of the shoot. He regrets saying that he wasn’t there on the sets as without his notice the script went through minor changes and that proved costly for the film at the box-office.

He then quotes the example of KV Reddy, how he never used to take the advice of others upon the completion of his script. When someone used to suggest changes in the script, KV Reddy used to say that that would be considered in his next film, says Paruchuri Gopala Krishna.

Paruchuri brothers have worked for numerous films for late legendary Sr NTR. They hold a special bond with the Nandamuri family and the same is with Tarak too. The Young Tiger fondly addresses Paruchuri Gopala Krishna as ‘Pedananna’.
