Audio of AM Ratnam's latest offing 'Nee Manasu Naaku Telusu' (NMNT) was released in a grand style at a function arranged in Sandhya 35mm on 2nd November 2003. The guests who came to the occasion were VV Vinayak, Allu Arvind, YVS Chowdary, Reema Sen, Anitha, Sonia Agarwal, SP Charan, Sri Raghava, financier Satya Rammurthy, Sadanand and Suman Shetty.

AM Rathnam said that he opposed when his son said that he would approach AR Rehman for music because Rehman takes lots of time to compose music. But Jothy Krishna was persistent on taking Rehman as music director. AM Rathnam said that Rehman would take more time to give great music. He said that extracting music from Rehman is not easy. Only directors of Shankar, Mani Rathnam, Ram Gopal Varma and Subhash Ghai caliber could extract right music from him. AM Rathnam said that AM Jothy Krishna is the youngest director (age is 20 years) in India.

Tarun said that AR Rehman is the inspiration behind him accepting this film as Tarun's lifetime ambition is to work with Rehman.

Trisha said that she is currently doing a film with Pawan Kalyan as hero. She also complimented that Tarun is a comedian (it means that Tarun has great sense of humor). She said that she had a ball while working for this film.

Year 2003 is a significant year for AM Rathnam. He produced 4 films each in Telugu and Tamil. AM Rathnam said that Ganesh - cinematographer - is a great technician. He worked for the 4 square advertisement in the past.

They projected a theatrical trailer and two full songs from the film on 35mm screen of Sandhya theater.

After watching the songs, Allu Arvind said that he felt very glad. He also said that by projecting the songs, AM Ratnam proved how far he is ahead from the standards of moviemaking in Telugu.

YVS Chowdary said that he is feeling jealous of Jothy Krishna after watching how he canned the songs. He also liked the experimental style of AM Rathnam in writing lyrics.

VV Vinayak said that he felt the songs are so rich in visuals that it needs double the screen size to justify it. He said that it was Jothy Krishna who conceived the scene of showing age difference for Ramya Krishna character in Padayappa film.

This title 'Nee Manasu Naaku Telusu' is having the caption 'Strictly for Uth'.

Jhansi and Udayabhanu anchored the event. Udayabhanu turned out to be center of attraction for the entire show.
