Nagarjuna

Nagarjuna's been at this since the mid-80s, son of the legendary Akkineni Nageswara Rao, and he built his own name with films like Shiva (1989) and Mani Ratnam's Geethanjali the same year — the kind of one-two punch that doesn't happen to many actors. Manam in 2014 brought three generations of the Akkineni family onto one screen, including his father's final film appearance, and it's still one of the most emotional watches in Telugu cinema. Four decades in, he's still working — this covers the songs across that entire stretch.
