Telugu Actor Nani's Journey from College Dropout to Top Tollywood Star
Telugu actor Nani, born Ghanta Naveen Babu, rose from humble beginnings to become one of Tollywood's highest-paid stars. He dropped out of college due to academic struggles and initially earned just Rs 4,000 per month while pursuing a film career. Starting behind the camera and working persistently, including waiting long hours for roles, Nani eventually gained recognition with multiple awards and now commands fees exceeding Rs 20 crore per film. He also owns a farmhouse valued at Rs 10 crore for relaxation.
