TFI's address for comedy - Brahmanandam

Not many can enjoy a successful career for 30 years in a creative Industry that always looks for young and energetic new talent. Even Brahmanandam entered as one but he weathered many storms to stay on top of the pinnacle from the day, his stars shone bright with Aha Naa Pelli Anta.

At the age of 31 years, he found a new career with uncertainties opening up and even blowing up like anything to make him a Star and today, he is still regarded as the most successful comedian in Telugu Industry ever.

Well, Allu Ramalingaiah was a character actor in many films and he is still the actor with a long-lasting career in TFI, after Akkineni Nageswara Rao. But Brahmanandam is a pure comedian. He might have done one or two films as a serious hero or in some 10 films he might have tried his hand in very moving roles, but his image is different from any other actor.

Relangi Venkateswara Rao, Ramana Reddy, Chalam, Rajababu, Padmanabham all shifted gears in their careers from being predominantly humorists to character actors at some point but Brahmanandam is the only actor who is blessed with still making the crowd go gaga over his facial expressions even after 33 years as a comedian.

He has many awards, got recognition from Indian Government with Padma Shri and we wish he continues to make everyone laugh for several more years as he just started his second lease of career after continuously working for 30 years. Happy Birthday, Brahmanandam garu!
