L. B. Sriram

Sriram came into Telugu cinema as a writer: his first feature credit, on Kokila, was for dialogue. Acting followed and then took over, spreading across hundreds of films in parts that run from comedy to the kind of supporting role that gets him named among the finest method actors working in the language. Chala Bagundi, Ammo! Okato Tareekhu, Hanuman Junction, Aadi, Dil, Chatrapathi, Stalin, Gamyam, Yevadu, Legend and Sarainodu are some of them.

He has won five state Nandi Awards, runs the production house Life is Beautiful Creations, and played Anjineyulu in the web series Amrutham Dhvitheeyam. Theatre, where he writes and produces as well as performs, has stayed part of the work the whole way through.
