Please go about twenty five years back as we are talking about the heydays of the noted lyricist Veturi who is still known for not possessing a house of his own. Apparently, he had the habit of blowing away his money by staying in luxury hotels with some of the finest food, good comforts and not to mention the 'other pleasures'.
In this process, he had once camped at the noted Sarovar hotel (now turned into Mediciti hospital) and had chanced upon an attractive receptionist when he was there. In no time, Veturi was seen entertaining the pretty woman and there is also a talk that he had taken her to an outing to an exotic place in India on flight, for about two days and had spent lavishly with her.
Today, he is still sought after when it comes to lyrics but ironically has no house of his own and has reached the final stages of his life. While Veturi is heard to be whining about the government's negligence on him, one cannot help it since it was his duty to take care of his welfare when he was young. Guess this serves as a learning point to many in the industry who follow their whims and fancies than their wisdom. And another aspect is that the banks are also afraid of this legendary lyricist to give loans and he was proved to be defaulter in many cases.
