During the recent trip to India I could get hold of a 78rpm disk, with
songs/verses from the film: Tenali Ramakrishna (1941). Yes, there was an
earlier version too, produced and directed by none other than H.M.Reddy.
L.V.Prasad played a small role in it. The lead role was played by
S.P.Lakshmana Swamy, a well-known singing star of yester years, who also
rendered the following verses.. BTW, its the debut film for Sadasiva Brahmam!

Anyhow, coming back to literary matters ...... On this disk I could catch 
three "chaaTuvulu" (?) that weren't used in the later version of 1956, *ing
NTR and ANR. I certainly remember reading the last one; i.e. "gangireddu
kawitwam", but, I don't remember seeing the other; neither in 
Deepaala Picchayya Sastry's nor in Veturi Prabhakara Sastry's compilations.

Has any one heard them before? I would appreciate if people 'd prvide
the correct texts, and the case of 3rd poem( which ends abruptly), the 
complete poem.  

Also, the "makuTam":
		navya tatvaartha_dhaamaa, tenaali raamaa!,
is new to me!

Thanks and Regards,
Sreenivas
