Rajendra Prasad, the nata kiriti, needs no introduction today. His acting experience in Telugu cinema runs into a couple of decades by now. He entered films with Bapu's film 'Sneham'. His first film as hero is 'Preminchu Pelladu' by Usha Kiron movies. He got the biggest break as the comedy hero with Sravanthi Ravi Kishore's film 'Ladies Tailor', which is directed by genius director Vamsi. He is the only comedy hero, who had the longest span in Telugu cinema.

Though comedy is his forte, he never deliberate to do some performance oriented roles in his career. He played emotional and sentimental roles in films like Punya Stree, Samsaram Oka Chadarangam, Erra Mandaram and Nava Yugam. He got the Nandi award (Best actor) for the serious role in the film 'Erra Mandaram'.

The entire family watches Rajendra Prasad films, as he makes sure that there is no vulgarity. Politicians like PV Narasimha Rao used to watch Rajendra Prasad films to get some relief when he was under tremendous pressure performing his duties as the Prime Minister of India. At point of time, the newly wed couple used to be gifted the videocassettes of Rajendra Prasad's 'Pelli Pustakam' by the well-wishers.

He is the director's actor. Directors like Jandhyala and Relangi Narasimha Rao grew along with him. Commerically successful directors like SV Krishna Reddy and EVV started their career as the director with Rajendra Prasad and continued with him as the hero till they got independent recognition. Rajendra Prasad shares a special relationship with Bapu, who introduced him into films. He gave very good films with the help of Bapu to Telugu movie lovers. He did also work with veterans like Vijaya Bapineedu and Singeetam Srinivasa Rao. Vamsi used to make most of his films with Rajendra Prasad as hero and both these talented people tasted their success in this combination.

Rajendra Prasad is conferred with honorary doctorate by Andhra University, Visakhapatnam. He is also conferred with the title 'Rashtra Hasyapati'.

At present he is working as a character artist in Nag's 'Aakasa Veedhilo' and Geeta Arts film with Chiranjeevi. He is doing hero roles in 'Apparao oka nela Tappaadu' and 'Miss Mumtaj'.

Rajendra Prasad was born on 19th of July in NTR's house at Nimmakur, Krishna district. Like NTR, he too made a mark for himself. We have only one comedy hero in Telugu. Rajendra Prasad that is. On behalf of idlebrain.com visitors, we wish his a happy birthday and plead him to give us more comedy films.
