Gunasekhar so far claimed the title ‘ Kathi’ and moved from the pillar to post in the film industry for justice. Even the Film Chamber failed to come to his rescue as NTR Arts registered the title with a different name as ‘ Kalyanram Kathi’.

He tried to explain to the elders of the film industry to at least to direct Kalyanram to change the logo of the film and avoid the word ‘ Kathi’ in big letters and the prefix in a miniature size. This effort was also proved futile.

Gunasekhar, who was almost in tears, talking to the media on Wednesday night says, ‘ I adore the Nandamuri family a lot. Even I introduced NT Rama Rao as a junior artiste in ‘Ramayanam’ . I never expected such a humiliation from such a great family. The entire film industry kept mum on this title controversy, though I announced my forthcoming film with Raviteja with the title ‘Katti’ . For that matter, EVV Satyanarayana asked me few months ago to give the title for his son’s film but I refused him. Now I am offering my apologies to the senior director. I don’ t want knock the doors of court for justice because of my adoration towards Nandamuri clan. I am gifting away the title to Kalyanram.’
