Puri Jagannadh

puri jagannadh as u all know is one of the good directors in tollywood
now im gonna write about my interaction and friendship wid puri bhai(tht's wat i call him)


i always wanted to become an actor
i was very very mad about puri jagannath rite from his movie idiot
and it happened like this
i met puri bhai one fine day after the movie happy days released
the guy who took me to puri bhai was ronny
i was so nervous when i went to his office
many thoughts were revolving in my mind
is puri cool ? is he good person or he has attitude ? does he even care talking to me ?
does he even value my thoughts etc cos me a small actor who is very new to this film industry why wud a great and a hit director like puri jagannath cares a noone in industry
but after meeting him i came to know one thing
one should never come to conclusions about anyone or anything until u knew them personally
day 1 i met him
he was so friendly and he offered me a cigarette to smoke and i acted as if i don smoke and he said
take it man i know u smoke i can guess it seeing ur lips
but as i have to maintain my dignity never smoked in front of him as i love him to the core......
he is such a wonderful person that anyone and everyone wud love to be with him once they get to know wat puri jagannath is
after that day i never met him for about 7 or 8 months but i was in touch with him through face book
i used to message him almost everyday
i used to wonder how he used  to manage to reply to every mail of mine
he used to fill in energy in me when i was depressed
he used to encourage me directly or indirectly through his words or deeds
i feel puri bhai like a kid
he loves people
he likes to play with his pets
he values every human being
he never gets angry unless and 
he loves movies to the core
he is a techno freak
good at heart and kind by nature
once when ek niranjan shooting is happening i was at home so depressed and weak as i got no new movie offers after maska
i called puri bhai at around 9:30 pm and asked him whether i cud visit his shooting set at booth bhangla, j.hills as it was a night shooting
he told
come over
u cud spend some time here
so i went to the shooting spot
there i saw prabhas and kangna ranaut sitting and talking to puri bhai
puri bhai was busy talkin to them and suddenly he saw me and i said HI
and puri bhai was like
he was making signs telling to come and sit but i never had courage to go and sit in a chair as i already told i was noone to sit in front of people who are already proved stars
when he asked me to sit i said ok but din go and sit
again he called me to sit in the chair still i din go
the third time he made his face serious and told me seriously to sit
then i went and sat beside puri bhai
tht day after i met puri bhai i lost all the depression that i felt
i got my energy back after seeing him
while i was leaving to my home he told me one thing
"rey vamshi thappakunda neeku manchi chance nenu isthanu ra
naaku konchem time iy......naaku thelusu neeku eppudu ivvalo"
i felt very happy after meeting puri bhai that day
so guys this is one of the experiences i had with puri bhai
will soon share few more experiences i had  with him
thank you
love you all
