R. Narayana Murthy is a popular film director and producer of Telugu films or Tollywood. Masses call him peoples star, red star or revolutionary star but he has set a trend with his ‘red’ or communist revolutionary brand films that expose the exploitation done to the lower strata of the society.
He is inclined to expose the atrocities of governments and upper strata of the society against the helpless or the poor. Having donated lakhs of rupees for the poor and needy whenever he made hit films, he leads a very simple life and often avoids media.
