Keeravani :

Thyagayya says, 'Endaro Mahanubhavulu, Andarikee Vandanaalu' (There are so many great personalities and my regards to one and all). For the completion of a film, everyone right from the lightboy to the director and hero, should strive hard. Dasari would not stop even if something is missing. For Raghavendra Rao, he would not stop unless he gets what he wanted. You can find both these qualities in Rajamouli.

I congratulate Valli for the initiatives and gifts introduced to check audio piracy. For the first time, Daler Mehendi rendered a song for a south Indian film. NTR and Mamata Mohandas gave their voices for a re-mix song 'Olammee Thikka Regindaa…' from 'Yamagola' composed by our guru.

Five mass songs were rendered by Ananta Shriram. Like this, there is the contribution of several technicians. NTR is truly continuing the legacy of the late NTR. Best of luck to him. If a person works with Mohanbabu for just 10 days he would become the bravest personality. If he is not there, there is no project called 'Yamadonga'. He is one and all others among us are zeroes. We are also planning to release the audio CD of dialogues too. Then I would talk about the dialogue writers Ratnam.

Dasari :

Me and my brother Raghavendra Rao were competing with each other for the past 35 years in the film industry and were traveling on the same boat. Never we had a remark or comment that we both are at loggerheads.

I wish such atmosphere in the Telugu film industry. When he gave 'Adavi Ramudu', I did 'Sardar Paparayudu'. When he gave 'Kondaveeti Simham', I did 'Bobbili Puli'. Like this, we competed with each other. I did not trust some one or went to Madras by selling my properties.

I trusted my own hard work and reached Madras. Hard work, dedication and commitment are the qualities that are need for achieving something and it is there in full to all those who were on the dais. Rajamouli's family treats the film as a small scale industry. When you have dedication, failure could not dare to touch you.

When Rajamouli gave a hit like 'Student No. 1' with NTR, nobody knows who is Rajamouli and NTR. They showed their might with 'Simhadri' with their successful combination. But when it comes to 'Yamadonga' it is a risky project, because 'Devantakudu' was brought out as 'Yamagola' sometime ago by rehashing and rewriting the story. Again remoulding the 'Yamagola' story as 'Yamadonga' is very risky or not? I know the story of this film.

I am confident that the film would be a big hit. If the director was able to extract the performance from NTR on the lines of 'Student No.1., Aadi and Simhadri', the film would be a big hit. Tharak performed excellently in a 400 feet shot in Rakhee recently. Keep it up. Mohanbabu's role would be an asset for the movie.

It is Mohanbabu who had the capacity to do any kind of role in the Telugu film industry. I have no inhibition to repeat the same dialogue for 100 times. Mohanbabu could modulate any dialogue in any way you want.

Mohanbabu :

When I played any other character than the hero, I never used to attend the film-related function of such film in my 33 years of film career. For the first time I am attending one such function now between 1975 and 2007.

There are two reasons for attending this function. One is Rajamouli. He is a wonderful technician. The second reason is Chy Tarak. When he is my brother's son, he is also like a son to me.

Once I asked Rajamouli to do a film for me. But he refused to do it. Because, he came from Raghavendra Rao's school he showed a similar inhibition. Now he himself came to me and asked to play the role of Yamadharma Raju. I said Okay. My heart is always plain like NTR.

Rama, Valli, Rajamouli, Keeravani all worked together like a team and brought out the movie. I entered the film industry as a technician. Rajamouli has the qualities of both Dasari and Raghavendra Rao. I wish him a long life. (Mohanbabu later spoke about producer Cherry, heroines, Veda and Keeravani)

NTR :

The film career of myself, Rajamouli and Vinayak began once. My first film 'Ninnu Choodalani…' was a dud and disappointed me. Then Aswini Dutt, Raghavendra Rao called me and told me the story of 'Student No. 1' and introduced Rajamouli.

I got a doubt whether he could direct the film well or not. Later, Vinay gave me 'Aadhi'. Next came 'Simhadri'. But I could not enjoy the success of those films. During the shooting of 'Raakhi' again Rajamouli came to me and told me to lose my weight. He made me to do so.

In fact, my fans believe Rajamouli more than me on the success of this movie. If I speak something about Vijayendra Prasad, it amounts to dishonouring him. I will speak about dialogue writer Ratnam during the success meet. Keeravani is simply superb.

In fact, I am honoured with your music. When it comes to Prem Rakshit, he has the caliber to replace Lawrence and Prabhudeva. I am unfit to talk about Collection King Mohanbabu. In fact, I was brought by watching his films. I am very happy that he was treating me as his son. Thank you uncle.

For the first time, my mother attended a film related and audio function. Thank you all.
