Venkatesh and Rana Daggubati remember Ramanaidu on his birth anniversary

On June 4, actors

Venkatesh

and Rana Daggubati took to social media to remember the late producer

Ramanaidu

on his birth anniversary.

Venkatesh, Ramanaidu's son, wrote, “Happy birthday Nana! Miss you every day. (sic)” Talking about his father at an event, the actor had once said, “My father has always been my inspiration. His passion for cinema and disciplined lifestyle has been the greatest takeaway for me in my life. He loved cinema more than anything and all his achievements are a reflection of the kind of effort he put in. I am always grateful to him for everything.” He has acted in many blockbuster films like Dharma Chakram, Ganesh and others which were produced by his father.

Rana Daggubati too remembered his

grandfather

on the occasion just like his uncle Venkatesh did. He wrote, “Happiest birthday to you. Miss you loads! (sic)” Rana too has stated in numerous interviews about how his grandfather was a major influence on his life and career both. Ramanaidu had produced around 150 films in 13 Indian languages. He had also received the

Dadasaheb Phalke Award

in 2009 and is known as a ‘Movie Mogul’. He took his last breath on February 18, 2015.
