He is considered the legend who has become immortal. He is the demigod who became a personification of Lord Rama and Lord Krishna to many Telugu people. He is the force who created a new political power with a strong Telugu identity. He is an icon whose records can never be beaten.

He is none other than N T Rama Rao and today happens to be his birth anniversary. Though it has been years since N T R left us, there are many of his loyal fans who remember him and perform special activities on his birth anniversary. Till date, the Nandamuri fans have a strong respect for NTR.

Even a small presence of his for few seconds as library shots onscreen results in whistles and claps. Blessed with an exceptional dialogue delivery and a screen presence that is divine, the best phrase to describe N T Rama Rao is 'Na Bhootho Na Bhavishyathi..'.
