ANR's Unintentional Blow to Krishna's 'Devadas'!

Padma Vibhushan Dr.Akkineni Nageswara Rao's 'Devdas' stands not only the best among his films but also one of the best among a few films in 82 years of tollywood history. The movie completed 60 years on 26th of June,2013. Although many heroes acted 'Devdas' roles in different languages of India, no hero stands on par with the great performance exhibited by ANR in 'Devdas'. 

Superstar Krishna used to take up many adventurous tasks those days. One such daring step is to remake ANR's 'Devdas'. Like ANR's 'Devdas', Krishna's 'Devdas' also filled with melodious songs. He too tried his best in the role of 'Devdas'. Krishna's 'Devdas' was released in the year 1974. However, ANR's 'Devdas' was re-released as an opposition to Krishna's 'Devdas'. Unfortunately, Krishna's 'Devdas' proved to be a disaster while ANR's 'Devdas' again scored a thumping success at the box office. That's the craze of ANR in the character of 'Devdas'. The movie stands eternal in the history of tollywood.
