00:01Ramoji Rao's name is very similar to the Vedic name because Ramoji Rao was a person

00:07who loved books and letters.

00:09He did a 50 year penance and left in 2024.

00:16He named the Vedic name in his memory.

00:21I will present some facts about the books.

00:26Microsoft News Service conducted a survey a while ago.

00:31They surveyed 100 rich people in the world.

02:37Tesla, car, SpaceX, etc.

02:40He is a man who has sent a smile to the world.

02:47He said he gets his ideas from books.

02:54Reading is a part of our culture.

03:00It influences our thoughts.

03:07We have forgotten reading.

03:12We are losing our Telugu identity.

03:20If there are 12 crore Telugu people,

03:23it is difficult to sell a book worth 12,000 copies.

03:28Reading is our strength.

03:32Varaku Obama sold 26 lakh copies in the 1970s.

03:40He sold 33 lakh copies in different platforms.

03:46The book is still alive.

03:49It is not in use in India.

03:52The Telugu language is in a very bad state.

03:55There are many reasons for this.

03:58We have to think about all these.

04:01Our books are being taken away from us.

04:08Countries like Finland have made books a part of their curriculum.

04:28Many European countries have made books a part of their curriculum.

04:36Varaku Obama has become the US President twice.

04:41He has earned a few crore rupees from his royalties.

04:44He loves books.

04:46That is why the books are alive.

04:48It is a cultural flow.

04:50Social studies will be taken away from us.

04:54I have been a principal at a journalism school.

04:57When we interview students,

05:01we see that they have stopped reading.

05:06They don't read books.

05:08Students who have passed their degree

05:10don't read a single book.

05:12There is no such thing in the world.

05:14We have to respect books.

05:16We have to protect books.

05:18Books give us an in-depth knowledge.

05:23We should love books.

05:26Upmukhimantri said that he is a book lover.

05:30You should read books.

05:38You should buy books.

05:40You should respect books.

05:42You should love books.

05:43You should protect books.

05:45If we read books with a goal in mind,

05:48Upmukhimantri has a lot of youth in him.

05:52I tell many people,

05:54if you read B.A., B.Com, B.Sc. for 3 years,

05:57it is 36 months.

05:59If you read B.Tech, it is 48 months.

06:01If you read a book once a month,

06:03and if you add up all the books you read

06:05during your degree,

06:07and add it to your resume,

06:09tell me who will give you a job.

06:12It will definitely have an impact on the book.

06:15We should get good writers.

06:18We have many good writers.

06:20People like Upmukhimantri,

06:22and many others who have a degree,

06:26should write books.

06:28We should take books to a wide audience.

06:31With the support of the government,

06:33we should write books in a public place.

06:36We are lacking some translators.

06:39We do not have translators like Nayanamayi.

06:44If we give a section in translation to our universities,

06:48and increase it,

06:50we will get more readers.

06:52Our readership will expand.

06:54Kanyasulkam should go to all parts of India.

06:57Barack Obama's biography

06:59was translated into 40 languages

07:01in 40 countries around the world.

07:03Premchandra's literature

07:05was translated into Indian languages.

07:07We have Kandukuri, Gurjada Apparao,

07:10great writers like them.

07:12We should go to other languages,

07:14to other Indian languages,

07:16to other parts of the world.

07:18We lack translators.

07:20Gandhi's autobiography,

07:22Satya Sodhana,

07:24which inspired the whole world,

07:26is not a good book.

07:28Since the 1930s,

07:30we have had 3-4 writers.

07:32We do not have a simple language

07:34that people can understand.

07:36We need translators like them.

07:38We need original thinkers.

07:40We have great scholars

07:42like Medhas,

07:44and foreign scholars.

07:46We need translators

07:48who write their experiences

07:50in Telugu.

07:52Then our book will expand.

07:54We need to take our books

07:56to the public.

07:58In the last 35 years,

08:00we have had a book exhibition

08:02in Vijayawada.

08:04We need to take our books

08:06to every part of the country.

08:08We need to treat our books

08:10as friends.

08:12Books are like a temple.

08:14If we take our books to the public,

08:16our Telugu books will expand.

08:18It is good for our culture.
