Vamshi Paidipally says that the relationship between him and NTR is that of brotherhood.  "I call him 'Annayya'.  There is a reason why I have shared a strong bonding with him over the years," the 'Maharshi' director starts saying.

The actor-director duo's relationship dates back to the year 2007.  "Tarak happened to see the Teaser for 'Munna'.  He called me up and appreciated me, saying that the teaser is really good.  After the film failed, I was down and out.  However, my equations with Tarak kept on growing.  Besides Dil Raju uncle and others, he was one of the few industry members who attended my marriage.  He spent one hour with the guests and that's an unforgettable thing," Vamshi says.

"Even after 'Munna' flopped, Tarak told me I did not fail as a director and that the film failed because of the story.  Eventually, I went on to do 'Brindavanam' with him," Vamshi reveals.
