The Indian government always recognises the best and most remarkable talents. We have observed that great tradition on several occasions. One such instance was repeated again last night. The government of India announced a few names last night, honouring them with the utmost respect by offering the Rajya Sabha nominations. PM Narendra Modi congratulates the nominees and welcomes them to Parliament. The nominees include Indian film screenwriter Vijayendra Prasad and Indian film music director Ilaiyaraaja. Having these two names on the list is a great honour for themselves, the Indian film industry, and the entire nation.
Vijayendra Prasad is the finest screenwriter in Indian cinema. He had produced the best stories for many films to date, and he continued to be the undefeated king of the creative world all these years in the industry. His great works include RRR, the Baahubali franchise, Bajrangi Bhaijaan, Manikarnika, Magadheera, and Eega. He is not only prominent in Telugu cinema but also across the nation. He crossed the regional boundaries and even delivered some of the best films in Bollywood. Vijayendra Prasad is at his best with his partner director, his son, SS Rajamouli.
Ilaiyaraaja is undoubtedly India’s best music director with his unbelievable achievements in a long career. The musical maestro has been serving Indian cinema for the last five decades and is still delivering the best today. He composed music for about 8000 songs in about 1500 movies. He also performed more than 20,000 concerts across the globe. The maestro has received five national awards to date in the field of music. Padma Vibhushan and Padma Bhushan were bestowed upon India’s greatest iconic musician.
PM Narendra Modi wrote about the works of both the legends, Vijayendra Prasad and Ilaiyaraaja, on his Twitter handle and congratulated them. Writing about Vijayendra Prasad, Modi said, “His works showcase India’s glorious culture and have made a mark globally.” Calling Ilaiyaraaja a creative genius, Modi wrote, “His works beautifully reflect many emotions.”
Shri V. Vijayendra Prasad Garu is associated with the creative world for decades. His works showcase India’s glorious culture and have made a mark globally. Congratulations to him for being nominated to the Rajya Sabha.
