Srirangam Srinivasa Rao(Sri Sri) founded Virasam VIPLAVA RACHAYITHALA SANGAM. Sahitya Academy announced an award for him for "Sad asad samsayam". He thought of accepting the award and donating the prize money to establish a press for exculsive use of virasam. But virasam prevailed upon him to reject the award. He didnot attend the awards' function but accepted the cheque sent by post. Virasam condemned the act. Sri Sri resigned his presisdentship opposing the organization of separate telanga conference under virasam. Sri Sri had written many songs for Telugu films. His Padavoyi Bharatheeyuda of Velugu Needalu (1961), Telugu veera levara of Alluri Seetha Rama Raju and Nenu saitham of Rudraveena were quite popular. He also wrote some romantic songs like Joruga husharuga shikaruu from Bharya Bharthalu,manasuna manasai from Dr Chakravarthy, naa raani kalaloney,naa hrudayam lo nidurinchey cheli from Aradhana and many more. Hats off to Sri Sri.
