Nagarjuna

NagarjunaDate Birth: 29th August 1959
Place of Birth: Chennai
Father: Dr. Akkineni Nageswara Rao
First Marriage: 18/02/1984, Vijaya Sesh kalyana Mandapam, Chennai
First Son: Naga Chaitanya (born at 4:20 am on 23/11/1986 at Swapna Nursing Home, Hyderabad)
Second Marriage: 11/06/1992, Adayar, Chennai
First Son: Akhil (born at 1:58 am on 08/04/1994 at San Jose, USA)

Nagarjuna, son of the Ever Green Hero Akkineni Negeswara Rao, needs no introduction. Nag’s foray into films is an act of passion. Vikram(1986), his debutante film (a Telugu remake of Hindi Hero), made a splash at the hearts of youth. Being just 4 films old he proved that he can match his father’s image as a tragedy king with a lovely film called ‘Majnu’. He developed the strategy of inducting debutante directors to his films with Sankeerthana. Though this musical saga did not sustain at box-office, Nag has gone a step ahead as an actor.

Nag is called as the celluloid scientist. He is best talent spotter around. To his credit he blooded Geetha Krishna, Ram Gopal Varma, Uppalapati Narayana Rao, Praveen Gandhi, VR Pratap and Jonnalagadda srinivasa Rao, Dasarath. He offered ‘Ninne Pelladatha’ to a new comer Krishna Vamsi just by looking at a 5 minute rushes of ‘Gulabi’. Nag will be known as the person who changed the mindset of industry with his creative thinking. He encouraged the new technology in his films. And others followed him. Nagarjuna is never after the number game and did not encourage the culture dragging movies for 50 days and 100 days for the sake of records and false prestige.
