who is kavana sarma
some times I wonder what am IA humourist?
many times i find that people who write about humour in telugu , they do not mention my Bangaru rojulu thiyyani baadha, and inti number
a sattirist?
Rarely my vyangakavanaalu are mentioned by vyaasa karthalu, medagantala govu peda katha
Serious novelist?
many people yhave not heard of Paridhi
educationist/?
no mention is ever made about my vidya-parikshalu, sata pravesa parikshaavadhaanam, gantaleni badi, brain drain conference thirunaallu etc
A feminist writer?
Perhaps I got alittle bit of recognitin in nineties because of the active feminst movement for my vidakulu, ameillu and surphanaka sokam
now nobody talks about it
so I am just an ordinary writer with no awards, an ordinary researcher with no honours an ordinary teacher never considered for excellence in teachin by the got
I may not be agood husband.
i hope I am a good father
You are a great father, teacher, writer, humourist, humanist, life-ist, environmentalist.
And extra-ordinary human being who practices generosity to others and austerity towards himself.
Recognistion and fame are mirages which depend on so many factors other than work and worth.

నువ్వు “ఇదే” అని ప్రపంచం పదే పదే చెప్పకపోవడమూ, “నేనేమిటి?” అన్న ఆలోచన మనకు కలిగే అవకాశం లభించడమూ … అంతకన్నా కావలసింది ఏముందండీ?

For any one, “Who am I?” is the big question confronting him sooner or later. You have worn many nice dresses in your life. But they do not determine your inner personality. You alone have access to that. What your writings reflect is your reaction to the happenings in society according to your samskaras. Its appreciation by the outside world depends on the tendencies of others. On any day I like VA Naipaul. I never had great opinion about Girish Karnad and his recent outburst only brought out his jealousy towards Naipaul and my estimate of him touched rock bottom.
Any one of us can only be happy that we could do what we liked in our life. The judge to all of us is with in us.

Sir, YOU are a great all rounder, with multi-faceted works , which impress many of us. Regarding not getting adequate recognition, it is really a sad reflection of our Telugu jathi. May be, being out of the native state for a long period, also had a role to play in it. As with Mullapudi, Bapu and many other greats , like you were denied the recognition which is definitely due. It is very easy to quote “karmanyeva vikarasya……, but it is a very sad state of affairs.

Fame does not mean greatness. Jagan is famous in AP. He is accused of being a criminal involved in a large scale theft of public money who abused his father’s position. He may even become a CM in future. Yarlagadda Lakshmi Prasad had fame thrust on him by the now infamous Academy Award. His Draupadi was a construct of his perverted mind. Rahul Gandhi, the Indo-Italian is famous because of his destiny and the accidental of birth as a great grand son and grand son. In today’s India fame and recognition mean only the network connections of an individual.and nothing more.

శర్మాజీ,
వెనక్కి చూసుకుంటే మన వైఫల్యాలు కొండల్లా అడ్డుపడి చూపు సాగనివ్వవు.
ముందుకు చూస్తే మన లక్ష్యాలు గుర్రాల్లా మనని మోసుకుని ముందెంతుందో చూపిస్తాయి.

నా దృష్టిలో మీరొక తిరుగులేని బాణం. దానికి పదునుపెడుతూ ఉండటమే నాకు ఇష్టం.
