The man who has acted in more than 256 films, who
made the Telugu film industry happening, a first-gen actor who has had a
career lasting for over 75 years. Thanks to his talent, it also
showered through his generation giving us other best actors like
Nagarjuna and Naga Chaitanya. His battle with Cancer proved futile as he
passed away a week back. The cinema industry will definitely miss this
gem of a hero.
Nageshwara Rao was first introduced in the movie
Dharmapatni way back in 1941. What is amazong about this man is that he
could comfortably don the hat of any role and did not restrict himself
to any particular genre. His first movie for instance infact saw him
playing a female role! Popularly known as ANR he has also won the Dada
Saheb Phalke Award. His variety of roles has been witnessed in movies
with folk genre, social issues as well. Alongside his contemporaries
like MGR and Sivaji Ganesan, ANR has also given some of the best
romantic movies.
'Kurissey Vennilo' is a good listen talking about few
best tracks of ANR. 'Cheliya Kanarava' also strikes one's mind thinking
about him.His best film includes 'Devdas' where he literally lived the
role and made many a audience shed a tear! The Padma Vibhushan winner
has also won the Filmfare Awards thrice for being the best actor.
This multi - talented actor is also a wonderful
writer. The easily mentionable ones are Tenali Rama Krishna, Devdas,
Maya Bazaar, Missamma, Muga . Ofcourse his movie 'Navarathri' which
released in 1966 is worth a watch. If you have't watched that movie yet,
we suggest you give it a watch this weekend!
