Its known that Popular Telugu dialogue writer Ganesh Patro (69) died of cancer on Monday at a private hospital in Chennai after a prolonged illness. Ganesh was closely associated with telugu actor-writer Gollapudi Maruthi Rao. In fact, Ganesh forayed into films with the support of Gollapudi and treats him like a Guru.
Just days before death Ganesh sent an SMS to Gollapudi and now it was revealed to media. Ganesh went on explaining about how bad habits will ruin one's life.
As per Gollapudi, the SMS reads so, "Dear Maruti, I've admitted to hospital for an oral surgery. You're my Guru. You had never shown your disinterest in enjoying Guntur's Lanka Tobacco (Chutta). Also you had never turned down having fun with betel quid with tobacco (Calcutta Patta tho Kattina Jarda Killi with Kashmir Kimaam). Bad always come along with good. God will bless the one who quits the bad habits soon after discovering them. Fortunately, you did so. One who can't give up bad habits will reach the God. You have to explain this to your sons- Patro."
As soon as he completed reading the SMS, Gollapudi had called Ganesh Patro but Ganesh with great difficulty told him, "I can't speak for a month. Sorry Maruti''. Later Gollapudi sent an SMS to Ganesh Patro on January 2nd to know if he is recovering and came to know it's too late for recovery.
