Back in the nineties, the Telugu cinema used to have the films of Rajendra Prasad whose main aim was to entertain the audience thoroughly and come up with hilarious flicks. After him, this slot in Tollywood was left vacant for a couple of years but talented hero 'Allari' Naresh made it his own for a long period.
Though Naresh arrived as the son of senior director EVV Satyanarayana, he created an own image for himself with his comedy timing and good script selection. He came up with movies like 'Seema Tapakai', 'Bendu Apparao', 'Kithakithalu', 'Sudigaadu', 'Allari', 'Blade Babji', 'Gopi' and many others.
Apart from out-and-out comedy films, he played challenging roles in movies like 'Vishaka Express', 'Nenu', 'Gamyam' and others which won the hearts of many. He was termed as the minimum guarantee hero of Tollywood but his films started to fail at the box office after 2014 which damaged his career. He made a comeback with 'Naandhi' and is currently working on movies like 'Sabhaku Namaskaram' and 'Itlu Maredumilli Prajaneekam'.
Recently, he completed 20 years in the industry and he did 59 films till date. He released an official statement that says, "20 years to give thanks for. To my co-artists, my directors, my producers, my technicians, staff and crew - your support has been relentless. To my friends in the film industry - your inspiration has been unparalleled. To mu fans, your undying love and faith has been unconditional. To my family, your presence makes me persevere. Today, thanks to you all I am here celebrating a milestone that dreams are made of, where the scorecard reads 59/20. Yours, Naresh."
