It’s not exaggeration to say that the word ‘Nepotism’ is the most searched word by cine buffs lately. Sushant Singh Rajput’s suicide and the social media outrage and Kangana Ranaut’s verbal attack brought this age-old practice in the industry to the limelight. The fact is Nepotism cannot be stopped overnight since it is human tendency to make our successors inherit our properties and professions. We know that the successors from Nandamuri, Akkineni, Konidela, Ghattamaneni, Manchu, Meka and Allu families are enjoying their stints in Tollywood.
Kanakala family played an essential role in TFI as Devadas Kanakala and Lakshmi Kanakala gifted worthy actors to the industry through their Film Institute. Their children Rajeev Kanakala and Sri Laxmi have also become actors eventually. Rajeev Kanakala married Suma, who is the busiest anchor on small screen now. Their son Roshan Kanakala debuted as a child actor through Nirmala Convent in 2016 along with Srikanth’s son Roshan who played the main lead.
Film Nagar is abuzz that Roshan is now playing the role of a protagonist in an upcoming film directed by newcomer Vijay. Suma Kanakala is getting into the shoes of a producer for her son and is producing the film with a partner. Official announcement about this film will be out soon.
