Suryadevara Radha Krishna, also known as S. Radha Krishna or Chinna Babu, is an Indian film producer known for his works in Telugu cinema.[1] He produces films under his production house, Haarika & Hassine Creations. Even though his other production house, Sithara Entertainments, is his own, his nephew, Suryadevara Naga Vamsi, mainly produces the films under the banner, while he presents them.

He made his film debut in 1988 by producing Aathmakatha, a Telugu remake of Mahesh Bhatt's 1985 film Janam.[2][3][4] Years later, he associated with producer DVV Danayya, where he presented Julayi (2012),[5] while Radha Krishna presented Cameraman Gangatho Rambabu (2012) and Naayak (2013). He then went on to form a long association with Trivikram Srinivas from Julayi (2012) and later produced his S/O Satyamurthy (2015), A Aa (2016), Agnyaathavaasi (2018), Aravinda Sametha Veera Raghava (2018), and Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo (2020).[6]
