Chiranjeevi,
the Megastar of Tollywood today, was born on 22 Aug 1955 in "Mogaltur",
a small village in 'West Godavari' District in Andhra Pradesh
to sri Venkat Rao and Anjana Devi. He grew up in his native
village with his grand parents, while his family was else
where because of his father's occupation. The sense of
descipline and hard work which he still embraces were
introduced at a very young age in his life and the tough
childhood he had being the eldest in his family have helped
him to handle many such events of higher proportion with
great expertise in the later stages of his life.
Little did he imagine, even in the wildest of his dreams,
that he would, one day, be a Megastar and rule the Telugu
Film Industry. Years later, this youngster called "Chiru" in
the Film Industry , with his hard work and dedication to his
proffession, could make it really big in the field hitting
the limelight, with an unparallel fan following emulating his
every act, word, dress and dance. What makes this ordinary
human being such an extraordinary one - god knows!
After graduation, Chiranjeevi moved to Madras to seek a
career in his chosen field of acting in the Film Industry. To
get himself ready for the stage, he joined in an acting
school in Madras. After struggling for some time, he took to
acting by appearing in small roles in films like "Pranam
Kareedu" and "Punadhi Rallu". He, from that modest beginning
to this date, has acted in 132 films. Throughout his career
he has been through a lot of ups and downs but every time he
came back with extra persevrance and won his way through
people's hearts with wonderful performances in his films.
Chiranjeevi got married to Surekha, the daughter of veteran
actor sri "Allu Ramalingaiah". Chiru has always been a family
man - being blessed with two daughters Sushmita & Srija and a
son Ramcharan Tej.
And as Chiru becomes the most popular hero, he has lived a
royal life, travelled widely from one country to another
around the world almost every time in the delightful company
of filmi celebreties who act, sing and dance with him. He
acted in a lot of best movies to date and had been able to
deliver splendid action-packed movies. With all these talents
in him, it isn't a big surprise to know that he has been one
of the highest paid movie actors in the Indian Film Industry.
Be it actor, star or megastar - Chiranjeevi has been
acknowledged as being one of the most successful actors in
the history of the Telugu Motion Picture Industry. We, in our
site, would like to highlight the remarkable work Chiranjeevi
has shared with the movie-going-public for the last 20 years.
ENJOY!
As Chiranjeevi completes 20 years of his entry into the films
and in all the achievements and honors, there's no sign of
pride but he's still going successfully with a string of hit
films. Chiru tells his fan association: " Among the many
skilled performers who toil in front of the camera, only a
few are excellent actors. A fewer still are those with the
vague and elusive traits we call star quality. At the
intersection of these groups is the most selected group of
all, a tiny number among whom Chiranjeevi stands out. The
reality is - i am an actor. My fans perceive me as a
Megastar".
Above all, on Oct 02 1998 he started Chiranjeevi Eye & Blood
Bank and Charitable Trust to give back to the people whatever
he could on the humanitarian ground thus demonstrating a new
dimension in his personality.
