With the Telugu movie Pranam Kharidu, the late director K Vasu made his directorial debut and gave Chiranjeevi his big-screen debut. Vasu hailed from a distinguished line of directors because both his brother Hemambaradhara Rao and father Pratyagathma were well-known in the movie business.
Following in their footsteps, K Vasu shown his talent as a filmmaker and produced a number of successful films in Tollywood. Vasu directed Joker Mama Super Alludu (1992), which had well-known comedian Brahmanandam as the main character. It was one of the few and the first films to have Brahmanandam in the lead role.Â
"May the soul of Shri K Vasu rest in peace," Pawan Kalyan, an actor and the leader of the Jana Sena, stated in a tweet. We won't soon forget K Vasu, the filmmaker of the Chiranjeevi-starring film Pranam Khareedu, Pawan Kalyan wrote. At 6 am on May 27, K Vasu's lifeless remains were transported from KIMS Hospitals to his Film Nagar home. Tomorrow at noon, the last rites will be performed in Hyderabad's Mahaprasthanam.
