Konidela Siva Sankara Vara Prasad a.k.a Chiranjeevi(Telugu: చిరంజీవి) is a prominent Indian actor acting mainly in Telugu film Industry born on August 22, 1955. His fans call him Annayya. In January 2006, he was honored with Padma Bhushan, the third highest civilian award in India for his contibutions to Arts and Social Service.

Childhood

Chiranjeevi, was born in a missionary hospital at Narsapuram, a village in the West Godavari district on 22nd August 1955. He was born to Shri.Venkat Rao and Smt.Anjani Devi. Chiranjeevi grew up in his native village Mogalthur with his grandparents, while his family was elsewhere because of his father's occupation(Police). The sense of discipline and hard working, which he still embraces, were introduced at a very young age in his life. The tough childhood he had being the eldest in his family has helped him to handle many such events of higher proportion with great expertise in the later stages of his life.NCC training during his college days, also helped him to imbibe the hard work and dedication in his life.

Education

Varaprasad's education was nomadic accounting to his father Venkat Rao's frequent transfers to Ongole, Ponnur, Bapatla, Mangalagiri, Gurajala, Chirala, Nellore etc. Varaprasad is really fortunate for his father has constantly encouraged him after having discovered the undaunted liking of his son towards cultural activities.

Varaprasad did his schooling in Nidadavolu, Gurazala, Ponnur, Bapatla, Mangalagiri and Mogalthur. He also won first prize for his first performance as Parandhamayya Panthulu. After high school, Varaprasad joined Bi.P.C in P.R.Sharma Jr. College at Ongole. Following that he finished his B.Com from Sri Y N College at Narasapur.

After graduating with a degree, Chiranjeevi came to Madras to pursue a degree and career in CA (chartered accountancy) and enrolled in Film institute in Chennai and walked out with a diploma.

Career

Chiranjeevi entered the Telugu film industry with the film Manavoori Pandavulu in 1977. Punnami Nagu wherein he played snakecharmer in 1981 gave him very good reputation. Meanwhile (between 1977 -81) he played a lot of minor and negative characters in films like Mosagadu, 47 Rojulu, etc. The first real break for him came with the movie Khaidi in 1983. It established Chiranjeevi as an action hero.

With films like Abhilasha (1983), Challenge (1984), Adavi Donga (1985), Raakshasudu (1986), Pasivadi Pranam (1987), Yamudiki Mogudu (1988), Atthaku Yamudu Ammayiki Mogudu (1989) etc he succeeded in establishing a name of his own in the film industry. He was given title of MEGASTAR by his fans with the movie Maranamrudangam (1988).

He won Nandi award for the movie Swayamkrushi (1987), directed by K.Viswanath, one of the Legendery Directors in Tollywood. His movie Rudraveena (1988) , directed by K. Balachander won him the Nargis Dutt award at the National level.

Chiranjeevi is known for his dancing abilities. He successfully imported the technique of Break Dance from the west and created a trend in the Telugu movie industry.

His winning streak continued into the 90's with films like Kondaveeti Donga (1990), Jagadeka Veerudu Athiloka Sundari (1990), Kodama Simham (1990), Gang Leader (1991), Rowdy Alludu (1991), and Gharana Mogudu (1992). All these movies worked well at the Box-Office with some creating new records. Then followed a series of flops and disasters with Mechanic Alludu (1993), S.P.Parshuram (1994), Big Boss (1995), Rikshavodu (1995) sinking at the box office. He bounced back with Hitler and Master in 1996-97 and delivered good hits in Choodalani Vundi and Bavagaru Bagunnara.

Later in 2002 Chiranjeevi had one more release, Indra. This film turned out to be a huge hit and became the highest grossing film of that year. He won both the Nandi Award and Filmfare Best Actor Award for the film Indra[1]. Later in 2003, he came out with another block buster "Tagore", an excellent message oriented movie based on the Tamil runaway hit Ramana starring Vijayakanth. This movie again broke all the existing box-office records and turned out to be the highest grosser in Telugu Film Industry. His long-awaited "Anji" released in 2004, but it failed to record the success, despite the high expectations,because of the long time the movie has taken to complete. But with the film Shankardada MBBS (Remake of Munnabhai MBBS), another social message oriented movie, he got another huge hit.

After this film he was again disappointed by the results of movies like Andarivadu and Jai Chiranjeeva an average grosser. He also appeared in a guest role in the film style directed by Raghava Lawrence. However with the film Stalin, another social movie, he bounced back onto the track, although the movie did not meet the huge expecations. In 2007 he came with Shankardada Zindabad, a seqel of Shankardada MBBS and a remake of the hugely successful Lage Raho Munnabhai. The movie turned out to be an above average grosser.
