Ghattamaneni Siva Rama Krishna (Telugu: ఘట్టమనేని శివరామ కృష్ణ) (born May 31, 1943), commonly
referred to as Super Star krishna, is one of Tollywood's most prolific actors. A prolific risk taker, his derring-dos
have played an instrumental role in enabling the Telugu film industry take a giant leap forward.
Having acted in more than 350 movies, He is credited with introducing many firsts in Telugu film Industry like first
Colour movie (Tene Manasulu (1965)), first Cinemascope movie (Alluri Seetharama Raju ), first 70mm movie
(Simhasanam), first DTS Movie (Telugu Veera Levara). He is very experimental and the first ever hero to introduce
cowboy and James Bond style to Telugu screen. In addition to acting he also directed 17 feature films and produced
many films under his Padmalaya Film Studio banner. He was also elected as a Member of Parliament from Eluru
under Congress Party. In 2009, the Government of India honoured him with the Padma Bhushan for his contributions
towards Indian Cinema.
Early life
Krishna was born on May 31, 1943 to Ghattamaneni Veeraraghavayya Chowdhary and Ghattamaneni
Nagaratnamma in a remote village called Burripallem, near Tenali in Guntur District, Andhra Pradesh, India. He was
the eldest of the five children from a middle income agrarian family. He could not afford to have convent education,
so he attended the school in his village to get his primary education before moving to Tenali and Narsapur to do his
S.S.C and Intermediate. Impressed by his scholastic achievements, his father raised money to send his son to the
prestigious C.R.R. college in Eluru to finish degree in BSc. There, he shared a room with another aspiring actor and
famous real estate person Murali Mohan, who later became star in their own right. Krishna played an active role in
various cultural events organized by his college. His performance in the play "Cheesina Paapam Kaasiki Velleena"
brought him critical acclaim, thus encouraging him to pursue acting more seriously.
Krishna (actor) 7
Film career
1962–1977
After graduating in Science from C. R. Reddy College in Eluru. Offers did not come his way easily and he had to be
content with playing insignificant roles in films like Padandi Mundhuku,Kulagothralu and Paruvu Prathishta. It was
during these unsettling times that he bumped into an advertisement, which mentioned that Babu Movies was
scouting profiles for their next film Tene Manasulu. Like several wannabe actors of his time, Krishna quickly
responded to the advertisement and got selected to play one of the male leads amidst tight competition. Half way
through the film Adurthi Subba Rao, the film director was subject to lot of pressure by its distributors (Navayuga) to
drop Krishna from the film. But Adurthi persisted with his choice and released the film as planned. Its phenomenal
success helped Krishna trespass the archetypal show-biz struggle as Adurthi repeated the cast for his next film
Kannemanasulu. Krishna was also selected to play the lead role in Sunderlal Nehta and Doondee's Gudachaari 116
during this time. Though Kannemanasulu failed at the box-office, the unexpected success of this action flick
established Krishna in the industry and he was often chosen to play the lead role in what came to be known as crime
pictures in cinema patois. Krishna grabbed every opportunity that came his way and several hits followed in the next
few years. Though action films were his forte, Krishna also delivered in soft films like Marapurani Katha,
Atthagaaru Kotthakodalu, and Undamma Bottu Pedathaa. The upcoming actor also got a chance to work with more
established actors like N.T.R. and A.N.R. in films like Sthree Janma, Niluvu Dopidi, Vichithra Kutumbam, Akka
Chellellu and Manchi Kutumbam during this period. Success did not get into his head and Krishna consciously chose
not to increase his remuneration even after becoming one of the minimum guaranteed stars in the industry. Most
producers, who made films with Krishna, repeated him in their next projects regardless of how their earlier films
fared. Some became so endeared with his consummate professionalism that they even tried pitting him against actors
higher up in the echelon (Retired action hero Kantha Rao recently confessed this in his bio-graphy). But Krishna had
no time for these behind the scene endeavors as he was super busy acting in multiple shifts round the years.
Krishna also set up his flag-ship production house Padmalaya films and produced several high budget films like
Mosagallaki Mosagaadu, Pandanti Kapuram, Devudu Chesina Manushulu and Alluri Seetharama Raju after a low
profile maiden home production Agnipariksha. Huge casting was a standard feature in all these films and the
production standards of these movies were far ahead of their times. With in a very short period, Padmalaya was
recognized as a leading production house and its films were the biggest hits of the calendar years 1972, 1973 and
1974. Krishna also set up another production house VijayaKrishna movies with his soul-mate Vijaya Nirmala and
produced some critically acclaimed films like Meena and Devadasu on it.
In spite of producing such high profile movies, Krishna continued working for producers with moderate budgets.
With these tight budgets, the film-makers sometimes could not provide the padding that is often required for a film's
commercial success and hence some of Krishna's films released in 1971, 1972 and 1973 bit the dust. Though these
failures reduced his success rate in early seventies, the years 1974 and 1975 can be considered as the real quiet
period in his professional life. Except Cheekati Velugulu, none of his films released in these years made any impact
at the box-office as people were reluctant to watch Krishna in softer roles after his riveting portrayal of Alluri
Seethaa Rama Raju in the eponymous film. Krishna was also seriously taken aback with the box-office failure of his
labor of love Devadasu, which was released in 1974. The year also saw Krishna straining his relationship with N. T.
Rama Rao ("N.T.R"), as the latter was against the idea (however congratulated him for his efforts) of Krishna
making Alluri Seetharama Raju and Devadasu respectively. Critics started questioning his box-office salability and
most of them even predicted his career to end soon.
Krishna (actor) 8
1978–1989
Krishna showed great resolve during these testing times and with supreme self-belief, he released his lavishly made
home production Paadi Pantalu for Sankranthi 1976. The film, which dealt with several agrarian issues of its time,
was a run away hit at the box-office. Krishna was also equally appreciated for his performance in Raja Rajeswari
Coffee Vilas Club, his second film in the famous Vijaya banner. Krishna also produced and released another movie
called Rama Rajyamloo Raktha Paasam in 1976. This is another instance where Krishna showcased his ability to
ably deal with exigencies when he changed the film's title and supplied new publicity material overnight to all
regions when censor officials refused to certify the film unless they did so. The officials, apparently, opined that the
original title Rama Rajyamloo Raktha Paatham; was too provocative and a dig on the prevailing socio-political
unrest. Krishna did two roles in this average farer, which revolves around how two siblings unite their estranged
parents. Kolleti Kapuram, Bhalee Dongalu and Devudee Gelichaadu are other films in which he acted in 1976.
While K.B. Thilak's Kolleti Kapuram was critically acclaimed for its thought provoking dialogues and for capturing
the serenity of Kolleru Lake in West Godavari district, Bhalee Dongalu, a re-make of the Hindi film Chor
Machaayee Shoor, hit the bull's eye. But Devudee Gelichaadu left a sour pill in Krishna's mouth that year. Krishna
became a top newsmaker again in the same year when he announced Kurukshethram as his next home production.
This surprised N.T.R. the most as he also wanted to make a movie Daana Veera Soora Karna based on the epic. The
relationship between the two strained further when Krishna expressed his inability to drop his project and both
started producing their films at frenetic pace. While Daana Veera Soora Karna was made with a limited budget and
featured N.T.R. in all the keyroles, Kurukshethram was made on a larger canvass with a huge casting ensemble.
Though Daana Veera Soora Karna had an emphatic victory over its rival during Sankranthi season in 1977,
Kurukshethram proved Krishna bravado once again. His good run at the box-office continued with Saavaasagallu
and the actor further penetrated into the urban mass segment with the super-hit film Dongalaku Donga.
Krishna's career reached greater heights between the years 1978 and 1986. During this period, Krishna acted in
several hit movies, increased his fan-following manifold, maintained an edge over his junior rivals and made his
seniors run for their money. More importantly, Krishna's stature also increased a lot due his philanthropy. In 1978,
Krishna acted in hit films like Anna Dammula Sawaal, Kumara Raja and Agent Gopi and other commercially
successful films like Indradanassu and Allari Bulloodu. The craze for him was so great that some of his flop films
like Mugguroo Mugguree created records before petering out at the box-office. Six of his films fared very well in
1979. While Viyyalavaari Kayyaalu, Mandeegundelu, Hema-Heemeelu and Kottha Alludu set the cash registers
ringing, Burripalem Bulloodu was another commercially successful film in Krishna's repertoire. Krishna and Sridevi
became a hit-pair in 1980 and the two acted together in Gharana Donga, Maama Allulla Sawaal, Chuttaalunnaaru
Jagrattha, and Ram Robert Rahim. Krishna also scored big against all his competitors when his Ooriki Monagaadu
became the biggest hit among all films released during Sankranthi in 1981. This film is a watershed event in his life
as it increased his craze and fan following in several remote areas too. Krishna was also the most consistent hero in
1981 as almost all his films performed well at the box-office. 1982 was another eventful year in his life and he
started it with the super-hit film Bangaaru Bhoomi, which was an improvisation of his Paadipantalu. Towards the
end of the year, Krishna became the fastest to complete 200 films in a lead role. He also became a studio owner and
produced Eeenaadu as it's maiden venture. This film was another feather in his cap and the satirical film acted as a
catalyst in bringing a regime change in AP. A string of super successful films like Mundhadugu, Kiraayi Kotigaadu,
Adavi Simhaalu, Sakthi and Prajaarajyam catapulted him to the top position in 1983. Krishna's reign at the
box-office continued in 1984 with films like Iddharu Dongalu, Bangaaru Kaapuram, Mukyamanthri and the lavishly
made Kanchukaagada. This high profile movie opened splendidly and illustrated Krishna's box-office prowess by
collecting Eighty Two Lakh Rupees in its first week. The Superstar ended the year on a high note with his last film
for the year Dongalu Baabooy Dongalu, running for 100 days run in a single theater in Vijayawada.
Krishna's career was at its pinnacle in 1985. The Superstar acted in swash buckling hits like Agniparvatham, Palnati
Simham, Vajrayudham in this year. Krishna's fantastic portrayal of the larger than life characters created by the
writer duo Paruchuri Brothers helped these films have spectacular runs at the box-office. In fact, his performances in
Krishna (actor) 9
these roles were so graceful and his histrionics so natural that fans across the state either started or re-named some of
their associations/fan clubs on the characters names. He also acted in other hit films Suryachandra,Pacchani
Kapuram and Mahasangramam with his peer Sobhan Babu. Krishna started 1986 on a low key as audience turned
down both his early releases Krishnagaaradi and Brahmasthram. But he bounced bank with his maiden directorial
venture Simhaasanam. Made with a budget of about four crore rupees in two languages and released on a
grand-scale in more than 150 theaters in A.P. alone, Simhaasanam collected One and half crore rupees in its first
week and completed its direct hundred days run in six major cities in the state.
Khaidhi Rudrayya was another smash musical hit in his career and the film created several records at the box-office.
The Superstar continued his slugfest against his political beliefs by satirizing some of the policies of Telugu Desam
Party in his home production Naa Pilupee Prabhanjanam. Disgruntled supporters and leaders of this regional Party
protested against screening of this film in several places. But their ruckuses, ironically, generated more publicity for
it and helped the film succeed. Though Krishna starred in the record breaking Muddayi, and in other hits like
Dongodocchaadu and Thandri Kodukula Challenge, 1987 was, by and large, a disappointing year in his career as
some of his highly expected movies like Sardar Krishnama Naidu, Viswanatha Nayakudu, Maa Voori Magaadu and
Makutamleeni Mahaaraaju fared dismally. Despite these professional setbacks, Krishna would still cherish the year
because his elder son Ramesh Babu debuted as a full fledged actor with Saamraat on October 2. 1988 was another
mediocre year in his professional life because only four Kaliyuga Karnudu, Aswaddhama, Rowdy No 1 and &
Mugguru Kodukulu of his ten releases had some kind of impact at the box-office. The next year, however, was a very
gratifying one for the Superstar because he not only acted in successful films like Koduku Diddina Kapuram,
Saahasamee Naa Oopiri, Gudachaari 117 and Goondaarajyam (collected approximately 74 Lakh rupees in its first
week) but also for getting elected to the lower house of the Parliament from Eluru (W.G.) in the general elections
held in 1989.
1990 – Present
The years 1990–1992 can be termed as the darkest period in his life because nothing went right for him both during
this period. None of his films, barring Nagaasthram, fared well at the box-office and the actor took his longest break
from work after Raktha Tharpanam, his last directorial venture in Telugu, tanked at the marquee. Ramesh's failure to
capitalize on his blockbuster Bazaar Rowdy would have presumably upset him further during those unsettling times.
Like other years ending with number 3 in the last two decades, 1993 also proved lucky to this Superstar and he came
back strongly with the unexpected super success of Pacchani Samsaaram. But it was Vaaraasudu, his second release
in the year, which made him the cynosure of the film fraternity again. The super-hit film, in which Krishna played a
supporting role after a long time, however, incurred the wrath of his fans as it contained some scenes, which they
thought, deprecated his image. In fact, the dissent was so great that the film-makers had to reach out to them through
the print media requesting them to patronize the movie after chopping of those scenes and adding an action episode
on him. But it was the film Number 1, which was another important turning point in his career as it helped him to
cross-over to a new segment of audience. Released amidst tight competition during the festive season in January
1994, the film featured Krishna wearing flashy outfits and dancing with verve and energy. Audience, who were
inundated with the lengthy dialogues in his movies, welcomed this image makeover and gave two-thumbs up for it.
The film went on to become a phenomenal success and paradoxically, several producers requested him to appear in a
song to help their film's cause. Amma Dongaa! (1995) was another thumping success in his career and the actor,
instead of treading carefully to consolidate his re-gained stardom, went on a signing binge again while others were
drastically reducing the number of films they acted to maximize revenues for each of their films. A string of flops
followed Superstar Krishna and though Krishna became the fastest to reach the 300 films milestone (in a lead role),
he was no longer a box-office phenomenon. This time, time was also not on his side to increase his personal stock as
he was in his early fifties by then. The aged war-horse has since then been doing supporting roles in several
insignificant films.
Krishna (actor) 10
Personal life
After he graduated from college, he married Indira Devi on November 1, 1962, with whom he has five children: two
sons, Ramesh Babu (film producer) and actor Mahesh Babu; and three daughters; Padmavati, Manjula (film
producer) and Priyadarshani. She provided him emotional support during his salad days. In 1965, she gave birth to
their first child Ramesh Babu. In 1968, Krishna's daughter Padmavathi was born and in 1969, Krishna married his
frequent leading lady Vijaya Nirmala.[1] and this created fodder for the gossip columns as they were still married to
their respective spouses with children. Krishna continues to be married to his first wife Indira Devi and would have
three more children with her: Manjula in 1970, Mahesh Babu in 1975, and Priyadarshini in 1979. He never had
children with Vijaya Nirmala but he apparently raised her son Naresh from her first marriage as his own. He also
supported Vijaya Nirmala's directorial aspirations by starring in the films she directed and was later proud when she
made the Guinness Book of Records as the most prolific female director in 2002. Today he continues to act in small
but significant roles in Telugu films. His son Mahesh Babu has also become one of the top actors in the industry
today. He has stated that Mahesh will not enter into any political business what-so-ever.

Nandu for a deal. On the day of the murder attempt, before Nandu gets to shoot Shiva Reddy, someone else fatally
shoots Shiva Reddy. Nandu did not pull the trigger so he knows it was not him. Within minutes, police surround the
Athadu 44

that Malli got trapped and died in the accident. So Nandu goes to the top of the skyscraper. With the police behind
him and in front of him, he is helpless. Suddenly a train comes and Nandu uses a rope to jump from the skyscraper to
the train.
There, Nandu meets Pardhu (Rajiv Kanakala), a talkative guy. Pardhu reveals that he ran away from his village,
Basarlapudi, when he was young. Pardhu explains that he is finally returning to his village. Later that same evening,
while aiming for Nandu, the police accidentally shoot Pardhu. Nandu escapes and not knowing what to do next, he

Meanwhile, in Barslapudi, after the marriage of the grand-daughter was over, the CBI come because they find out
that Nandu is not Pardhu and suspect that Nandu is the killer. Nandu learns of the situation and flees. After the CBI
leave, Nandu returns to explain everything: who is he and how the real Pardhu got killed. At first the family shows
no interest in helping Nandu to find the real assassin as they are all shocked but the grandfather (Nassar) helps
Nandu by giving him a gun.
Nandu calls Baji Reddy and demands
to know who killed Shiva Reddy. At
first, Baji Reddy refuses but after

recorded cassette to the CBI officer. The CBI officer goes directly to Bajji Reddy's office and tells him that he will

Plot
The metro city is rife with the nefarious activities of land mafia. There are two rival gangs; one under Ali Bhai
(Prakash Raj) who resides in Dubai and controls the operation through his siblings Ajju and Mona, and another
operated by local goon Narayan. Both threaten builders and land owners into giving them protection money or
property, through force, extortion or murder. Sayed (Sayaji Shinde) arrives as the new Commissioner of Hyderabad
and starts cracking down on crime.
Pandu (Mahesh Babu), a thug, is abducted by Mallesh, a member of Ali's gang and his henchmen. Pandu has taken a
contract from Narayan to beat up Mahesh, which he does. Ajju invites Pandu to join Ali Bhai's gang. Pandu declines
stating that he does not work for any gang, but is ready to do anything given enough money. Pandu falls in love with
Shruthi when he visits his cousin's (Ajay) aerobics class, but she mistakes him for a thug. Shruthi, a college student,
lives with her widowed mother and younger brother. Bramhi (Brahmanandam) lives above Shruthi's house, and
frequently tries to convince Shruthi to marry him. Sub inspector Pashupathy (Ashish Vidyarthi), is a corrupt officer
in the colony where Pandu and Shruthi live who often works with the land mafia. He is also on the payroll of Ali
Bhai. He falls for Shruthi and decides to make her his mistress, even after multiple rejections by Shruthi.
Pandu's first assignment with Ali's gang is to kill a member of Narayan's band. However, police show up at the spot
where Pandu and the other gangsters are waiting. Pandu engages the cops long enough for the others to finish the
task and flee. He also helps Shruthi escape from Pashupathy. She is impressed by his kindness and friendship soon
blossoms between the two, leading to the development of unspoken romantic feelings for each other. When Shruthi
tries to expresses her feelings they are attacked by members of Narayan's gang, whom Pandu finishes off. Shruthi is
shocked to learn that Pandu is a gangster with no qualms about killing people.
Pashupathy arranges for some thugs to pretend to rape Shruthi, so that no decent family will want to take her as their
daughter-in-law; with no other option Shruthi and her mother will accept his demands. Pandu learns of this and
assaults Pashupathy incognito, warning him that if he is found responsible for this incident then things will turn ugly
for him. After much ado and mental anguish, Shruthi accepts Pandu.
Ali Khan comes to Hyderabad and kills Narayan. He also meets Pandu to discuss the killing of a minister by blowing
up a balloon. Pandu disagrees with Ali Bhai's method as it would involve killing innocents. In the middle of their
argument police raid the club and arrest Ali Bhai. His gang members retaliate by creating a lewd video of the police
commissioner's daughter and releasing it to media. They also kidnap her, forcing the police to release Ali Bhai. Ali
Bhai drugs the commissioner's daughter, causing her to reveal that her father placed a mole in Ali Bhai's gang. They
find that Pandu's uncle was a police inspector and the inspector's son, Krishna, is now a part of Pandu's gang. Ali
Bhai kills Krishna in front of Pandu. However, it is revealed that the person who died was actually Ajay. The actual
son of the retired inspector is Pandu. His father explains that Krishna has been masquerading as a corrupt mafia to
penetrate the underworld gangs and wipe them out from the inside.
Krishna/Pandu avenges his father's death by finishing off all members of Ali Bhai's gang including Ali Bhai and
Pasupathy.

Despite receiving mixed reviews, Sainikudu opened well in India, ending up as an average grosser[6] .
Plot
The film starts with floods at Rangasaipet in Warangal District. Houses, trains and people inundate in flood water
and Siddarth, (Mahesh Babu) a young man saves the people up to his maximum effort. Eight of his friends assist him
in the rescue activity.
On the other hand Chief Minister (Kota Srinivasa Rao) recommends the candidature of Pappu Yadav (Irfan Khan),
for Assembly Elections. Pappu Yadav is a goonda who wishes to earn big through politics and power. To get the
attention of people Pappu Yadav announces a sum of Rs.5 Crore for flood victims.
The food that needs to reach the victims of the flood is taken elsewhere to be sold out, an illegal way of earning
money by selling the food and as well backing up the flood relief fund into the pockets of the politicians. Siddharth
gets to know this through one of his friend and saves the stock in time and take it to the flood victims for
distribution.
This annoys Pappu Yadav for which Mondi Nani (Prakash Raj), Pappu's right hand, threatens Siddarth. A strife
develops between Mondi Nani and Siddarth and the latter declares that his friend (Ajay) would be contesting in the
next Assembly Election opposite Pappu Yadav. Siddarth and his team get accolades from the people for this decision
and thus start campaigning. To cut the good-name of the group in the people and to win sympathy , Pappu Yadav
conspires for a bomb blast allegation on Siddarth and Co. Mondi Nani works for him and the mission accomplishes.
Pappu Yadav declares Siddarth and Co as terrorists and wins the election. Pappu Yadav becomes the Home Minister
and his marriage settles with Vara Lakshmi (Trisha Krishnan). Siddarth, with the help of many college students
kidnaps Varalakshmi from marriage hall in a dramatic sequence, demanding Pappu Yadav to let out his crimes
before the court of law.
Rest of the film shows Home Minister Pappu Yadav chasing Siddarth for getting his bride Varalakshmi back. ACP
(Telangana Shakuntala) also assists him and spills a little comedy with her style of dialogues. The film has no twists
and turns and major part goes with chasing aspect.
Finally, how Siddarth puts an end to the game of crooked politicians has to be seen on screen.

by Trivikram Srinivas. It is the second collaboration between Mahesh Babu and Trivikram. Singanamala Ramesh

Plot
Raju (Mahesh Babu) is a taxi driver. Whenever he meets Subhashini aka Subbu (Anushka Shetty), he suffers a huge
loss to his taxi. After one such encounter, Raju gets hospitalized. After his return from hospital, he takes two people
(a geologist and his assistant, Dilaver Singh)in his taxi. The geologist forgets his wallet in the taxi and Raju follows
him into the building to return it. To his shock, someone shoots and kills the geologist. The geologist's assistant, in a
bid to escape, jumps from the window and dies, destroying Raju's taxi in the process. Raju's manager suggests that
Raju go to Rajasthan, give Dilaver's life insurance money to his family, and ask them to reimburse the cost of his
taxi's repairs.
Meanwhile, Subbu’s father looks for a marriage alliance and finalizes the match with Amit, son of G.K. (Prakash
Raj), as they both wanted to join hands in business. Amit takes Subbu to Rajasthan in a helicopter, presumably on a
date. Finding some condoms with him, Subbu realizes his intentions and runs away from him. There again,
coincidentally Subbu meets Raju (who is on his way to meet Dilaver's family). While they try to return to Andhra
Khaleja 59
Pradesh, G.K.’s men attack Raju and stab him. However, some people whose village has suffered numerous deaths
from a mysterious disease, take Raju as their savior, as he fits the description of the village oracle's prophecy of the
arrival of a savior. Some comical coincidences appear to prove that Raju has divine powers. How Raju cracks the
mystery behind the disease, why G.K.'s men stabbed Raju, what G.K. has to do with the disease and the village, and
how Raju teaches a lesson to G.K. form the crux of the story.
