Both the versions I have were sung by someone else (JV Raghavulu ?), but not Ghantasala. To my* knowledge G sang only for the role "kRshNa". Infact the film producer Pundarikakshayya in a radio programme (emotionally) narrates at length how G recorded those verses, only for the role of kRshNa. G was in "very" poor health those days and was on hospital bed. Pundarikakshayya, a very good friedn of G, told him that they can change the voice track later and there isn't nothing to worry about. But G insisted that they make a direct track saying: "kaadu baaboo! avi pauraaNika padyaalu. vaaTini paaDE teeru vEru. alaa pratyaksha sangeetamtO paaDaali. okavELa naakEmainaa jarigitE kRshNUDi padyaalu paaDutoo pOyaaDu anna tRpti ", and came to rec. studio. > 2. kavi kalamunaku, Silpi vuliki, kalakunchaku ee mUTiki mummATiki A GEM it is!!
