It would not make much of a difference to you as far as heroes or heroines or comedians or villains go in terms of their absence because there are many suitable replacements for them. However, that is not the case with the character artists. There are a few who leave an indelible mark on the audience.
Few years ago when real star Srihari passed away, there was an anxiety and fear as to who can take his place in Tollywood. Fortunately, the powerhouse performer Prakash Raj came in and made up for it. However, Prakash has become a big man today and he is busy with various commitments.
For a long time, the fear was on as to who can replace him and now Tollywood has found the answer. It is in the form of the character actor Rao Ramesh. He has become busy with all movies and claps are heard in theatres for his dialogues. Rao Ramesh is proving to be the apt son to his father, the iconic Rao Gopala Rao.
