Ahead of the making of 'Sye Raa', director Surender Reddy had met some of the descendants of Uyyalawada Narasimha Reddy, the first Telugu freedom fighter. The writers of the film got some valuable inputs and references from the members.

However, if what these members are saying is to be believed, the makers of the biopic haven't kept their promises. They have been waiting for Megastar Chiranjeevi to pay a visit to them. They apparently have some complaints. Admittedly, some of them have been visiting Hyderabad to seek an appointment with producer Ram Charan and/or Chiru.

While they are happy that Narasimha Reddy's character is being essayed by an able actor like Chiru, they are quite sad about the neglection.
