The memory is still fresh for Shanmukha Sunnapuralla. As a teen, at a library in his hometown Kadiri, he couldn’t identify writer/actor Girish Karnad’s photograph. A few years later, when he saw his parents, who were teachers, Srinivasulu Sunnapuraala and Yashoda Vajrala, enlarge photographs of poet Sankarambadi Sundarachari to show students, he wondered how many youngsters could identify Telugu poets and authors. “Telugu textbooks do not have photographs of authors or poets. How will the next generation even identify them?” Shanmukha launched a Telugu literature kit, ‘Telugu Sahitimoorthulu — Mukachitraalu Repati Tharam Kosam’, to fill this gap.
