Raghumudri Srihari (15 August 1964 – 9 October 2013) was an Indian actor who was active mainly in Telugu cinema. He appeared in a few Tamil, Kannada and Hindi films as well. He won Six Nandi Awards & One Filmfare Award.

Early life[edit]

Srihari was born near Vijayawada, Krishna district, Andhra Pradesh. His parents were from Gudivada. They moved to Hyderabad, and settled in Balanagar when he was still a child. He started his career as a stunt fighter. He was also an athlete in gymnastics. He was offered jobs such as sub-inspector of police and railway officer, but he rejected those offers because he was interested in pursuing an acting career.

Personal life[edit]

Srihari married South Indian actress Shanti, popularly known as Disco Shanti, in 1996. The couple has two sons and a daughter. Their daughter, Akshara, died when she was just four months old. The family started the Akshara Foundation in her memory, which aims to supply fluoride-free drinking water for three villages he adopted in the Ranga Reddy district. He donated over 50% of his earnings for the cause of this foundation.[1] He also adopted four villages in Medchal.[2]

Death[edit]

While shooting for the movie R... Rajkumar, he complained of giddiness and was rushed to Lilavati Hospital.[3] On 9 October 2013, he died in Lilavati Hospital in Mumbai, aged 49, after suffering a liver ailment. He is buried next to his daughter.[4][5]
