Till I met him in this connection, I had just seen and read about him only in the media. Ideological differences apart, I acclaim him for his strength of conviction and his commitment to his ideals. You don't find any difference between his song and his way of life. The one reflects very faithfully the other. 'The voice that is heard uninterruptedly, eternally and untiringly is that of the revolutionary,' says Gaddar. That precisely is why he is known as the people's singer. If his pen and voice jump into action no sooner than does a people's movement starts, it only indicates his competence and commitment as a man of the downtrodden and the exploited. Gaddar forever lives in the hearts of the people through his immortal voice. Thanks to Sushmita's marriage invitations, while having the pleasure of inviting these greats to the wedding, I had too the rare privilege of meeting and having an insight into the lives of these eminent figures. None of them, it should be understood, were born great. They are not heirs to greatness. They are all just ordinary people, born in ordinary circumstances and brought up in an ordinary manner. They are all just very ordinary people who grew into extraordinary figures and turned role models for others. They illustrate the dictum that great men are not just born but made, and are a source of inspiration to others who really want to be great. Their riches, status, position and social rank – these are not the things that attracted me towards them. With all humility I bow before them for their self-confidence, refinement and culture. These are the great opinions that Nagababu expressed about the ten greats he had met. Nagababu didn't limit himself to inviting them perfunctorily to Sushmita's marriage. He conveyed to us the fragrance of their inspiring virtues. It is for that that he rightly deserves our congrats and thanks.
