Chittor V Nagayya – First Super Star of Telugu Cinema

On the 114th birth anniversary of Chittor Nagayya Garu – The very first super star and a versatile artist of Telugu Cinema

If its Tyagaraja , Pothana , Vemana , Ramadasu , Valmiki …what ever is the character he played , he stood as synonym for the role.He is known for his philanthropy, known for his golden heart , known for his great voice and his un matchable acting skills.He is equally respected and remembered Tamil cinema as well.

Regarded as one of the finest Indian method actors, and the first Telugu matinee idol, known for playing intense characters, often immersing himself in study of the real character’s traits and mannerisms.Great actor, great musician, singer, composer, producer and director and above all a great human being with heart full of gold. He was the first celebrity from South India to be awarded Padma shri by the Government of India. The great film journalist Sri Baburao Patel of Film India called him as “The Paul Muni of India”.

As a old movie lover, i can write pages about you and i can speak for hours, still its really very less…Proud to have such great artists who gave life to many characters and remained eternal
