Akkineni Nageswara Rao, legendary Telugu actor, dies in India

Legendary Indian actor Akkineni Nageswara Rao has died in the southern city of Hyderabad.

Rao, 90, who had been battling cancer for many years, died in his sleep, his actor son Nagarjuna said.
In his nearly seven-decade-long career, Rao acted in about 250 films, including hits like Tenali Rama Krishna, Devdas, Maya Bazaar and Missamma.

The Telugu actor was awarded the prestigious Dada Saheb Phalke award, the highest honour in Indian cinema.

The Indian government also honoured him with the country's second highest civilian award, Padma Vibhushan.
His body will be taken to Annapurna studios owned by his family to enable his colleagues and fans to pay their tributes.

Dear Sir,

I will give you a simple example..just say a man was a womanizer when he was alive..when he was alive people who have said all bad stuff about him but when he is dead the speech at the funeral would sound like this:


"Here lies a man who had a big heart and full of love..there was no one he did not feel love for...may his soul rest in peace"

Dear Renuka,

A speech is only what you say and may not be what you think.

Dear Renuka,

A speech is only what you say and may not be what you think.

So that means I can say "I Love You" and you will think she is only saying it..she may not think about it!LOL

Dear Renuka,

She may or may not mean it. That was what I meant

Dear Renuka,

She may or may not mean it. That was what I meant

She loves me..She loves me not..She loves me..She loves me not.
