==Biography==<br />
Sarabhayya began writing poetry at twelve and won laurels for his poems from the stalwarts like Sri Chellapilla Venkata Sastry, Sri Katuri Venkateswara Rao and [[Viswanatha Satyanarayana]]. He was fondly called 'Bala Kavi Kesari' by them. He spent most of his time in cultural capital of Andhra Pradesh 'Rajahmundry'.<br />

He published his poems in various literary magazines and reviewed many books under the pen name 'pavaki'.<br />
<br />
Sri Viswanadha held Sarabhayya's views in high esteem and eagerly waited for his remarks on his poems. The Kavisamrat made it a point to recite first to Sarabhayya and then only to others.<br />

In 1997, he received the Raja-Lakshmi Literary Award for his contribution to literature. He also won Gupta Foundation Award and many titles and awards.<br />
