Vasundhara's role is unforgettable in the 50-year journey of Balayya
Balakrishna's success is often attributed to the unwavering support of his wife, Vasundhara Devi, who has been his steadfast companion through all of life's ups and downs. Their marriage, which took place in 1982, is a testament to their strong bond. Vasundhara Devi, the daughter of a prominent businessman, Devarapalli surya Rao (also known as Chaudhary Garu), hails from Kakinada. Her family is well-respected in the Konaseema districts, with assets worth hundreds of crores, and their SRMT company continues to thrive in the transport sector.
Before their marriage, an interesting incident occurred. balakrishna was in kakinada for the shooting of the film "Ram Rahim" and was seen riding a rickshaw. Vasundhara's mother, unaware that it was for a film shoot, was concerned to see the son of the legendary ntr riding a bicycle. Little did she know that this young man would soon become her son-in-law. balakrishna recounted this story in an interview, highlighting how unexpected and fateful their union was.
Since their marriage, Vasundhara Devi has stood by Balakrishna's side, supporting him in every aspect of his life, including his busy film career and political responsibilities. She also took on the responsibility of raising their children, ensuring their well-being and success. Their eldest daughter, brahmani Nara, married into the family of Chandrababu Naidu, while their second daughter, Tejaswini, married Shri Bharat, heir to the vizag Geetham institutions. Their son, Mokshagna, is preparing to make his entry into the film industry. Through it all, Vasundhara Devi has proven to be the perfect partner, playing a crucial role not only in Balakrishna's film and political career but also in maintaining the strength and unity of their family.
