Wonder how he became 'Viswa Vikhyata Natasarwabhowma'?. Revered Paramacharya Sri Chandrasekharendra Saraswathi of Kanchi Kamakoti Peetham after watching his spellbinding performance as Ravana in 'Bhookailas' conferred him with the honor. NTR's 'Patala Bhairavai' was the only south Indian film selected for the 1952 international film festival. All in all, he became Lord Rama 12 times and Lord Krishna 6 times.

He did de glamor role in Bhuvana Sundari Katha, a differently-abled person in Kalisi Unte Kaladu Sukham, a blind person in Chiranjeevulu, innocent in Atma Bandhuvu, and as a eunuch Bruhannala in Sri Madvirat Veera Brahmam and Nartanasala. He got felicitated with 'Padmasri' but many feel that he deserves Bharata Ratna. However, NTR's political plunge changed the dynamics. NTR created a sensation by becoming CM within 9 months of starting a party in 1983. He stunned everyone touring the entire state on his Chaitanya Ratham in the election campaign in 1982. His 'Atma Gauravam' connected chord with commoners and even during the strong sympathy wave during Indira Gandhi's assassination he stood tall. 

He played a key role in the Third Front or National Front at the Centre but chose to concentrate on state politics though many urged him to play important role in centre. In between he lost power but again came back with vengeance in 1994 promising total ban on liquor and 2rs Kilo rice. He kept his promise however hard hit the treasury due to the ban. He was credited for making revolutionary change in law enabling even daughters’ equal rights on properties inherited by parents. Whatever may be his shortcomings tollywood and movie lovers across world remember him for his spell bounding acting, powerful dialogues and terrific films
