Now, it gives me great pleasure to report that the many fans of
Sree kaLeepaTnam raamaa raavu are planning a grand felicitation for
'maasTaaru' on his 72nd birthday - November 2 1996, at Hyderabad.
The noted writer kavana Sarma chairs the felicitation committee.
The felicitation committee proposes to present a purse of Rs. 100,000
to Sree raamaa raavu on that day. A fund raising campaign is on the way.
Sree kalaSapooDi Sreenivaasa raavu from New York is leading the local
efforts.
Here is how you can contribute:
1) Send your donations before August 15, 1996 (checks written to Rao
Kalasapudi) to Rao Kalasapudi, 76-22, 265th Street, New Hyde Park, NY
11040, or
2) Send a check/draft written to 'Sreekaaraaniki puraskaaram'
and mail to kavana Sarma, Flat # 104, 48-1-19, Dwarakanagar,
Visakhapatnam, 530 016.
