Today marks the birth anniversary of the late veteran actor Krishna, father of Telugu superstar Mahesh Babu. Mahesh took to Instagram to share a precious throwback picture of his father, accompanied by a heartfelt caption expressing how deeply Krishna is missed and how he continues to live on in Mahesh’s memories.
Namrata Shirodkar shared her own tribute to her father-in-law, affectionately known as “Mammaiya”. She posted a cheerful picture of Krishna on Instagram, praising him for being a remarkable father figure, a beloved superstar to his fans, and a compassionate soul who inspired many.

He also thanked his fans for their overwhelming support, emphasizing how deeply touched he was by their love and affection.
Krishna’s remarkable career in Telugu cinema spanned over 350 movies, starting with his debut in 1965 in “Thene Manasulu”. His contributions to the industry and the lives he touched continue to be remembered and cherished by many.
