N. T. Rama Rao (1923–1994), commonly known by his initials NTR, was an Indian actor, writer, director and producer who worked primarily in Telugu cinema. Through hios over four-decade long career, he was considered one of the most pivotal figures of the industry.[1][2][3][4] After his debut in Mana Desam (1949) and his first lead role in Palletoori Pilla (1950), Rama Rao's performance in the fantasy film Pathala Bhairavi (1951) made him famous.[5][6] His other films with Vijaya Vauhini Studios, Malliswari (1951) and Pelli Chesi Choodu (1952), were also successful and crafted his "superstar" image.[7]
Through the late 1950s and 1960s, Rama Rao became well known for his roles in mythological films.[5] He was most notable for playing Krishna, with his first portrayal in the epic Mayabazar (1957).[8] In 1958's Bhookailas, his portrayal of the demon king Ravana, an unprecedented turn for an actor who had mostly played heroic roles up to that point, won him considerable praise.[9][10] In the wake of its success, Rama Rao reprised the role in his directorial debut Seeta Rama Kalyanam (1961), which was also well received.[11][12]
After Rama Rao entered politics, his films were produced more intermittently with a six-year break occurring during his first term as Chief Minister.[13]
