Valluri Balakrishna

Valluri Balakrishna was an Indian actor who primarily appeared in Telugu films as a comedian. He acted in more than 100 films as a comedian, but the role he played in the movie Patala Bhairavi alongside N. T. Rama Rao as "Anji Gadu" made him popular with the audience. He also played a role Sarathi in the very popular film Mayabazar.

Another Telugu comedian Rajababu used to felicitate one veteran on his birthday every year. He started this tradition with Valluri Balakrishna because he was very much inspired by his acting in the film Patala Bhairavi. He watched that film around 90 times.
