I used watch movies all the time. As I was fond of camera they have admitted me in a studio. I used to work as a Eenadu reporter. I wanted to become a cameraman.. but they said 'no' because I was very slim and couldn't carry heavy weight cameras. Madha Ragarao is my uncle. With that reference I have participated in the story discussions of 'Police' starring Srihari.. Even though I joined there as a cameraman.. they changed me into direction department as my inputs were good".
"I can't forget the words of Srihari garu told me at that time.. 'Relationship can bring upto here. But you have to work hard from here onwards'. Srihari gave me opportunities for 9 films for me later. I've worked under EVV Satyanarayana. I joined in Srinu Vaitla after 'Anandam'. I worked for several films with him. When we were shooting the last song of 'Andarivadu' Chirangeevi garu called me. He told me that I have done 20-30 shots 'one more time' for you. He said that he has observed my face.. if he obsveres me unsatisfied, he will call.. 'one more time'. He suggested me that 'if you are not satisfied don't hide it.. you have to express it'. I'm still following his suggestion".
