This is from the famous novel 'gaNapati' of Sree cilakamarti. This was
enacted by Sree veteran nanDuri subba rao and was broadcast on vijayawaDa
radio station. In the very beginning of the drama, 'gaNapati's' very old
mother takes him to join in the school. As they approach the school,
'gaNapati' being a very ugly person by stature and appearance is perceived
by the school children as a 'konDa muccu'. As the school children get
excited, the old teacher asks them what's the matter.
One student says,
' oka aaDadi; kaadu kaadu, musaldi; oka konDamuccunu teesu
kostOndanDi'.
teacher says,
'yEDi SaavulE! musalidaitE aaDadi kaadatraa!'.
