In his 37-year-old career, he has done films in every genre, be it comedy, romantic, action, science fiction, crime thriller, biopic, adventure, fantasy, horror.
Venkatesh has always been at the forefront of making experimental films and giving the audience a unique experience. This hero became a protagonist in the movie Kaliyuga Pandavulu. This movie released in 1986 brought him good recognition. Before this film, he acted as a child artist in the film Prem nagar (1971) produced by his father Ramanaidu. This movie became the biggest hit at the box office. Before this movie, ramanaidu was in financial trouble. After this, he cleared all his debts and became a star producer.
But venkatesh got his first salary with this movie. venkatesh took a remuneration of Rs.1,000 rupees for acting in the movie prem Nagar. But 50 years ago 1000 rupees was not a common thing. venkatesh started shooting for Premanagar when he was 10 years old. A child artist was needed at that time. Then Rama Naidu asked the director KS Prakash Rao why should anyone take my son. Later, when venkatesh was asked, he said that he was ready to act in this film. When he was told to give 1000 rupees, he was happy and said ok. venkatesh will be seen in the role of Keshav varma (younger version).
This hero who started his career with a thousand rupees is now taking money in a few crores. According to reliable sources, venkatesh reportedly charged Rs 17 crore for his recent release Saindhav. He received Rs 15 crores for the movie F3. It is reported that he is earning money for each film in this range. It can be said that it is really great for senior heroes to receive such an amount of money. venkatesh is unable to score hits so there is a possibility of doing multistarrer movies.
