Legendary actor Akkineni Nageswara Rao ( ANR), who is battling with cancer, passed away here on 22/01/2014 Wednesday.




Born on 20 September 1923, ANR began his acting career in 1941 in Telugu film "Dharmapatni." In a career spanning 73 years, ANR has starred in more than 250 films in various languages including Telugu, Tamil and Hindi. The legendary actor has won prestigious awards including Dada Saheb Phalke, Padma Shri, Padma Bhushan andPadma Vibushan


In memory of the great ANR, I had the opportunity to talk with him several times. Even though he is a great person he respects all. Good human being. He was a lovely man. He stated that the Postal department is one of the good govt. organization still in service to the people. While asked him to play as a roll of “Postmaster” he replied with a big smile. He will be missed by all Telugu people and millions of fans world wide.
