The lifetime of an actor depends on various things including that of the subjects they choose towards the fag end of their career. Other day after looking at the song “Rechipodam Brother” from F2, Fun And Frustration, there is an interesting observation being made by film lovers.
The film has both Venkatesh and Varun Tej playing the roles of co-brothers, as husbands of Tamannah and Mehreen respectively. And then, they are joined by another senior star Rajendra Prasad in their journey where they want to enjoy life to the fullest when their wives are not there. Guess what, Venky and Rajendrudu belong to a similar age group, and of them is playing hero roles, while other one became a character artist who plays father roles mostly.
While Venky is 58 years old, Rajendra Prasad is 64 years old; The Mayalodu star, however, started his career in 1977 as an actor and became a happening hero in some time. But Venky started as a hero directly in 1986 and still continuing the same. Well, maybe the Suresh Productions backup helped Venky still continue as a hero, but Rajendra Prasad failed to sustain his master innings for long.
Anyway, Rajendrudu has simply extended his career big time by choosing to play character roles, while we have to see how it goes for Venky!
