My Journey

My journey has been nothing short of dramatic and inspiring. Following the footsteps of the legendary Nandamuri Taraka Rama Rao Garu, I have always drawn strength and motivation from his remarkable life and work.

I was born and brought up in Thimmarajupalle, a remote village near Kadapa district. Growing up amidst the beauty of nature deeply shaped my perspective on life, creativity, and storytelling. My dream of becoming a director was nurtured through struggles, starting from organizing small dramas in my hometown to pouring my heart into script work that laid the foundation for my career.

In 1999, I moved to Hyderabad with a burning passion to enter the Telugu movie industry. My early work in mythological serials gave me valuable experience, especially with blue and green mat techniques—well before they became mainstream. Over the years, I have had the privilege of working as an Associate Director for Telugu films, as well as directing advertisements in the Telugu media industry.
