Manoj Manchu Restores Dasari Narayana Rao Samadhi and Wins Hearts
A video about the poor condition of Dasari Narayana Rao’s samadhi went viral after journalist Gautami shared it online. She showed how the memorial of the legendary Telugu director was neglected and full of leaves and dust. Many fans felt sad seeing the state of the place that honors one of Telugu cinema’s biggest names. That same night, actor Manoj Manchu saw the video and replied on social media. He said it was painful to see and promised to do something from his side. Within hours, his words turned into action and people started praising him for his quick response.
Manoj Manchu reached the samadhi at 7 AM the next morning before going to his film shoot. He came with his team and cleaned the entire area around the memorial. They removed dried leaves, dust, and other waste to bring back respect to the place. Manoj said he had not visited the samadhi for three to four years. He added that the video deeply affected him and he could not ignore it. This act showed his respect for Dasari Narayana Rao, who inspired many actors, directors, and writers in Telugu cinema.
This work is also part of Aikya Dhairya Sena Samithi, a service group started by Manoj and Mounika Bhuma Manchu. The group works on the idea of unity, courage, service, and impact. In recent weeks Manoj has taken up many social activities like blood donation drives and help for people in need. He also visited MatruDevobhava Anadha Ashramam and helped a man named Santhosh get care and support. Through these actions, Manoj wants to give a voice to the voiceless and take social responsibility seriously.
By cleaning Dasari Narayana Rao’s samadhi, Manoj showed that remembering legends is not just about words but about action. His effort brought dignity back to the memorial and made fans and film lovers happy. People on social media are appreciating him for honoring Telugu cinema’s great director with true respect. This step also proves that public concerns can turn into real change when someone takes the lead.
