much nostalgia in us all. I personally have memories of Rajeswara Rao%u2019s father Pydiraju's studio in the Fort where children were taught art. Lastly the artist Poosapati Parameshwar Raju whose deep attachment to Vizianagaram and its people can be seen in the immaculate detailing and design of the book.Gratitude is also due to the families and homes who have been an integral part of the Vizianagaram Samasthanam for generations. The importance of preserving our heritage and knowledge of our roots cannot be over-emphasised. I hope this book gives readers a glimpse into the life and times of our last Maharaja PVG Raju and motivates people to aim for change and growth in their own lives.Pusapati Ashok Gajapathi RajuVizianagaram / 9 April 20245
