Being a well known star at a regional level is something but being a star who is known nationwide is completely something else. Since the inception of cinema in India, just a handful of regional level stars have become famous across the nation. From the Telugu soil, it was just megastar Chiranjeevi and ‘King’ Akkineni Nagarjuna in the recent decades.

Now, one young hero is becoming quite popular nationwide for his choice of movies. He is none other than the towering hunk Daggubati Rana. He made his debut in Hindi even before he stepped into Telugu properly but over a period of time, Rana has decided to go for roles with substance and value addition than stardom.

Recently he was seen in movies like ‘Baahubali’ ‘The Ghazi Attack’ ‘Nene Raju Nene Mantri’ and now he would be seen as an elephant rider in the movie ‘Aranya’. He also has movies like ‘Anizham Thirunal Marthanda Varma: The King Of Travancore’ and ‘Madai Thiranthu 1945’ which are having some really interesting content. Way to go Rana!
