Additional Information
A VERY well-known stage actor of early years. Especially his roles as "kaNva maharshi" in _abhij~naanaSaakuntalam_, as "veerabaahu and hariSchandra" in _hariSchandra_, as "daSaratha" in _paadukaa paTTaabhishEkam_ were legendary. In the days when singing skills were far more important than acting skills, he studied "Carnatic Classical music" under paarupalli raamakRshNayya for long years and drew large crowds with his excellant singing voice. He also had the "sangeeta vidwaan" title to his credit. According to some sources he made his debut way back in 1911 as "sahadEvuDu" in chilakamarti's _gayOpaakhyaanam_. He was associated with "baalabharata sangham" (Machilipatnam), "seetaaraamanjanEya naaTaka samaajam" (Eluru) and "baalabhaarati" (mailavaram). In addition to his innumerable appearances on the stage in a career spanning over four and a half decades, he cut a large number of discs and apparently acted in 22-25 films (sofar we could list 15 of them.), starting in P.pullayya's _hariSchandra_.
