The relationship of the late NT Rama Rao with prominent personalities, and the discipline in his work is known only to handful of persons.

Todupunuri Friends, a publication unit, had compiled the essays scripted by popular film and political personalities on NTR in which they mentioned their friendship / relationship with him.

The compilation of the essays was published with a title 'Nayakudu – Katha Nayakudu'. The same was unveiled by NTR's grandson Nandamuri Kalyanram recently.

Speaking on the occasion, Kalyanram says, 'It is really an excellent compilation. Especially the essays penned by the contemporaries of our grandfather like Akkineni Nageswara Rao, MG Ramachandran, Gummadi, Kantha Rao, C Narayana Reddy and others, in which they shared their experiences with him in this movie are really moving and touching the heart. I liked the book very much. I am confident that the film would also attract all the fans of the late NT Rama Rao.'
