This book inspired Revathi to make 'Salaam Venky'.
Talking about Venkatesh, she said: "Certain people face difficulties in life with so much spirit. He spent the remainder of the days of his life happily. The film is a mother and son's journey, Venkatesh and his mother Sujata."
Bollywood actress Kajol also briefed about Venkatesh's mother Sujata K and how she faced all the ups and down in her life for her son bravely.
"Simplest people are usually the bravest. At that time, whatever she did, she kept at it. She did not think whether she can do it or not and so she could do what she did," she said.

Sujata K. also came with her daughter on the show.
