Tollywood is currently facing a clear shortage of strong character artists who can carry a film on their shoulders. Among the very few names that instantly come to mind, Naresh stands tall. What makes his journey special is how smoothly he has moved from being a successful lead actor to becoming one of the most dependable performers in supporting roles.
Naresh once ruled the box office as a comedy hero, especially during the 90s. He built a solid fan base with a series of entertaining films that worked big at the time. As trends changed, he did not cling to hero roles. Instead, he adapted. That decision has paid off richly, making him one of the busiest and most talked about actors today.
In recent times, his performances have often stood out even in films packed with popular stars. In Nari Nari Naduma Murari, despite Sharwanand and two leading ladies being the main attraction, it was Naresh’s comic timing that brought the loudest laughs in theatres. His role and the humour built around it connected instantly with audiences. Before that, films like Samajavaragamana and K Ramp gained extra strength because of his presence and performance.
Naresh has also never shied away from experimenting. Turning elements inspired by his own personal life into a film was a bold move, and it showed his willingness to take risks. Now, he is all set to return as a solo lead once again, with a new film where his look and character feel completely different from what audiences expect. Playing a flawed and layered role at this stage of his career shows his confidence as an actor.
While many of his contemporaries continue to work steadily, Naresh’s energy and hunger stand out. He is equally effective in comedy and emotional roles, something he has already proved in several acclaimed films. Even at 65, his fitness, screen presence, and enthusiasm remain impressive.
Another reason producers value him is his involvement beyond just acting. Naresh actively supports his films by attending events and promotions without fail. With his versatility, discipline, and passion still intact, Naresh’s second innings is not just successful, it is one of the brightest phases of his long career.
Naresh garu will soon be seen in Garividi Lakshmi, Crazy Kalyanam, Shubhakruth Nama Samvatsaram and Hey Bhagawan, continuing his strong run with entertaining roles.
