Akkineni Nagarjuna

2011-03-27T22:29:00.000-07:00

Akkineni Nagarjuna or simply Nagarjuna, is one of the gems of the Telugu Film Industry (a.k.a. Tollywood). Nag, as he fondly called, is the son of the veteran actor, Akkineni Nageswara Rao. His magnificence and on-screen charisma is a spectacular-watch for all the movie buffs in South India. In a career expanding to four and a half decades, this Yuva Samrat (a title given to Nagarjuna by his fans) has come to be regarded as one of the finest actors, film directors and producers of Tollywood. Nagarjuna is known for his ace acting skills and instinctive nature. Right from the power-packed performance in front of the camera to handling almost all the departments behind the scenes, Nagarjuna has proved his artistic excellence in almost everything related to film-making.

Early Childhood

Akkineni Nagarjuna Rao was born on August 29, 1959. He is the son of Telugu actor Akkineni Nageswara Rao and his wife – Annapurna Akkineni. Nag did his schooling from Hyderabad Public School and completed his senior secondary from Ratna Junior College. Thereafter, he attained a degree in mechanical engineering from the College of Engineering, Guindy (Chennai). Nagarjuna’s academic record was further enhanced with a Master’s Degree in Automobile Engineering from the University of Louisiana, Lafayette.

Debut In Tollywood

Nagarjuna stepped into the world of entertainment with the movie ‘Vikram’ (1986), a remake of the Hindi film – ‘Hero’, starring Jackie Shroff. Four films old, Nag tried his hand at tragedy, playing the protagonist for a tragic love story –

‘Majnu’. The movie ‘Collector Gari Abbayi’ saw the father-son duo sharing space on the big screen. Though Nagarjuna continued to act in a number of movies thereafter, success eluded him. It was only in 1988 that Nagarjuna tasted victory, with the movie ‘Akhari Poraatam’, in which he was paired opposite Sridevi. The film was a big hit and ran for 100 days in 12 centers.

A Star Is Born

‘Akhari Poraatam’ was the movie that laid the foundation of success for Nagarjuna. However, it was films like Maniratnam’s ‘Geethanjali’ and Ram

Gopal Varma’s ‘Shiva’ that escalated his status, further, from that of a star to a super star. The actor fully exploited the freshness of the young directors by revamping his image as an actor and adding ‘charisma’ to his roles in the movies. During this period, this Yuva Samrat also tried his hand at Bollywood. He debuted with the Hindi remake of Shiva, made under the same name. Some of the other Hindi flicks in which he acted are Criminal, Zakhm and LOC Kargil.

Krishna Vamsi’s ‘Ninne Pelladutha’ is one of the mo

vies that enhanced Nagarjuna appeal amidst the Tamilians. He was admired and appreciated

by people spanning all the age groups and genders. However, he still lacked that punch in his acting career. That punch came when he grabbed the challenging role of Annamacharya, the legendary singer/poet of medieval times, in the movie ‘Annamayya’, a decade after making his debut. The movie is still known to be one of the biggest hits in Tollywood. It ran for 100 days in 42 centers and also got Nagarjuna his first National Award.

Annapurna Studios and Other Career Interests

One of the most flourishing production houses in today’s time, Annapurna Studios, primarily started by Akkineni Nageswara Rao, was revived b

y Nagarjuna. Apart from being a production company, it also houses a film studio, in which 90% of the Tamil movies are shot. Nagarjuna’s instinctive nature and prompt decision making s

kills not only brought him personal success, but also gave the Indian film industry some ace directors. Ram Gopal Verma and Krishna Vamsi are amongst the directors who were given their first break by Nagarjuna. Nagarjuna owns several restaurants in India and abroad and is believed to have invested large sums of money in

real estate projects in Dubai.

Personal Life

Nagarjuna tied the nuptial knot two times. Pres

ently, he is married to Amala, a popular actress in Tamil and Telugu film industry. He has two sons – Naga and Chaitanya, from his first marriag

e. From his second marriage, he has another son – Akhil Akkineni, who was seen in the film – Sisindri.

KONERU HUMPY

2010-01-30T06:18:00.000-08:00

Humpy Koneru (born 31 March 1987 in Gudivada, Andhra Pradesh) is a chess grandmaster from India. Her January 2010 FIDE Elo rating is 2614, placing her number two in the world for women (behind Judit Polgar). In 2007 she broke the record of 2577 set by Susan Polgar for the second-highest ranked female player in Chess history and became the second female player ever, after Judit Polgar, to exceed the 2600 Elo mark.

Humpy was originally named Hampi, (after the ancient city) by her parents, but her father later changed it to Humpy, a more Russian-sounding name. She writes her family name (Koneru) before her given name[citation needed], as is the convention with Telugu speaking people.

From 2002 through 2008, Humpy held the record as the youngest woman ever to become a grandmaster (not merely a Woman Grandmaster), which she achieved at the age of 15 years, 1 month, 27 days, beating Judit Polgar's previous mark by three months; however, this has since been surpassed by Hou Yifan.

In 2001 she won the World Junior Girls Chess Championship. In 2006 she participated in the Women's World Chess Championship, but was eliminated in the second round. In the Women's World Chess Championship 2008 she made it to the semi-finals, but was beaten by Hou Yifan.In 2009 she was involved in a feud with the AICF (ALL India Chess Federation ) .Her father Koneru Ashok who was coaching her was not allowed to travel with her for tournaments .This created a lot of controversy and has not been solved as of now

EENADU

Early days As with any other publication, Eenadu too had its share of struggles. When launched in Visakhapatnam , it wasn't able to sell more than 3,000 copies a week. Eenadu found itself struggling to become a daily publication ranked amongst other popular rival publications.

By 1975, Eenadu managed to achieve its target of becoming a daily publication. However, it was popular in regions and rivalry was still an issue. In a period where the company needed vision to drive and expand it any further. Eenadu hired a new set of directors to be part of its key decision and management group which drove it towards what it is today being the top read, highly circulated newspaper.

Sobhan Babu (January 14, 1937 - March 20, 2008), professionally and popularly known as Shoban Babu, was a Tollywood film actor.

Born as Uppu Sobhana Chalapathi Rao to a middle-class family, Sobhan went on to become a romantic icon and was the top Tollywood hero for two decades. He made his film debut with Daivabalam directed by Vasanthkumar Reddy, but his first film to hit the screens was Bhakta Sabari.

Shobhan's Manushulu Maarali ran for 25 weeks, a record-breaking achievement in those days. He received the Filmfare Award four times, the Nandi Award five times and the AP Cine Goers Award eight times.

Background

The son of Uppu Suryanarayana Rao, Babu had three sisters Dhanaranga, Jhansi and Nirmala, and a brother, Sambasiva Rao.

Babu completed his initial schooling in Kuntamukkula Mylavaram. He pursued his Intermediate in Vijayawada and finished his degree at Andhra-Christian College in Guntur. Later, he studied law in Chennai, but ultimately discontinued it.

He married Shanta Kumari on 15 May 1958; they had a son, Karuna Seshu and three daughters: Mrudula, Prashanti and Nivedita.

Babu's first film was Bhakta Sabari. Chitrapu Narayana Murthy was his first director. His film Manushulu Maarali ran for 25 weeks which was a record at that time. His first colour film was Kannavari Kalalu.For the first time he went abroad for a film shooting for Ramudu-Parasuramudu. He made a dual role in Potti Pleader for the first time.

He was honored with several Nandi Awards by the state of Andhra Pradesh. He was given the honorific, "Natabooshana", which became his last name in Movie credits.

During the 1970's he was also the lover of Jayalalitha who later went on to become the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu. In reply to a report in a 1978 issue of the Bombay-based Star and Style magazine, implying that she and Shobhan Babu had parted ways, Jayalalitha confirmed that the relationship was strong and they were "going steady".

Unconfirmed reports and friends-later-turned-enemies like Valampuri John have insisted that Jayalalitha had a daughter named Shobhana, who was born of this liaison with Shobhan Babu

Career

Sobhan Babu made his debut in the film Daivabalam. After that he acted in many films playing small roles.

Veerabhimanyu (1965) was his first movie as a "solo hero". This movie turned out to be a big hit. However, he still played small roles in many films in order to earn money for his family. After the huge success of Manushulu Maarali, he acted in films until 1997.

The highlight of Shoban Babu's career was the three consecutive Film Fare awards he won between 1974-1976 (1974 - Khaidi Babayi, 1975 - JeevanaJyothi, and 1976 - Soggadu). This was a record for the Telugu film industry. Babu was only the second actor (after Dilip Kumar) to receive three consecutive Filmfare trophies.

His rise in the acting industry was also a boon to producers with Babu's successive hits including Veerabhimanyu, Manushulumaarali, Kalyanamantapam, and Tahsildhargaari Ammaayi, which garned Babu a large fan base.

Sobhanbabu had paired up with Sarada for several films and they were a hit pair. It was a unique combination. Sobhan Babu known for his glamour and Sarada for her outstanding, performance-oriented roles.
