A man whose exploits earned him the title Action King. His films follow a very predictable pattern almost synonymous with him. He can be called a B& C center specialist. The last time a movie of his made considerable profits was in 2004 with Giri. Not to say that all his subsequent movies have bombed. A change in choice of scripts might help him get out of his current stereotype. His fan following in Andhra Pradesh has made dubbing a viable proposition for his producers making his movies safe bets. His movies are made within 3.5 crores and sell for around 4 crores. He takes home around a crore for a movie.
