"His body will be kept in the morning at the South Indian Film Chambers of Commerce (SIFCC) office for public to pay their last respects. Later in the evening, we will take him to the Punjagutta cremation ground where his last rites will be performed," Subrahmanyam's son Pradeep told IANS.

"Some of his industry friends visited him after we reached home last evening. The doctors had asked us take him home because he his condition had worsened," Pradeep added.
