About me / Bio:
Ahuti Prasad was an Indian actor who worked in Telugu film industry. He was renowned for the wide variety of roles he played, including father-figure, comedian, and antagonist. Prasad appeared in over 150 films in his career spanning nearly three decades. He got his moniker "Ahuti" after playing the antagonist in the film Ahuti (1988). He is a recipient of two Nandi Awards. Prasad was born on 2 January 1958 as Adusumilli Janardhan Vara Prasad to A. Ranga Rao and Hymavathi. Originally from Koduru of Krishna District near Mudinepally, his family migrated to Raichur in Karnataka when he was a child. He became interested in acting during his college days and sought a career as an actor. However, his parents were firmly against him pursuing a career in acting - he therefore completed his bachelor's degree before taking their permission to join a film institute. After completing his education, Prasad moved to Hyderabad and joined the Film Institute of veteran director V. Madhusudhana Rao. Devadas Kanakala was the principal of the institute during this time, while Ramjagan and the late Achyuth were his classmates there. Prasad married Vijaya Nirmala with whom he had two sons - Karthik and Bharani. Prasad's career started with the film Vikram directed by V. Madhusudhana Rao which was Nagarjuna's debut film. Prasad also worked as an assistant director for V. Madhusudana Rao for the film Malle Moggalu. Producer Shyam Prasad saw him on the sets of the film Ee Prasnaku Baduledi? where he was working and offered him a role as the antagonist in his film Ahuti. Because of the big break the film gave him, he came to be known popularly as Ahuti Prasad. Prasad expressed that Krishna Vamsi's Ninne Pelladata was key in pushing his career as a character artist, and that his success in the film ended up flooding him with offers. In 2003, he won the Nandi Award for Best Villain for the film Nenu Ninnu Premistunnanu. In 2008 he won a Nandi Award for Best Character Actor for the film Chandamama, in which he played an alcoholic landlord. Prasad was praised for his mastery of the Telugu accent specific to the East and West Godavari districts, a trait he demonstrated in many roles throughout his career. He began his career with antagonist roles, but gradually transitioned to other shades throughout his career. Prasad was diagnosed with colorectal cancer in 2014 and underwent treatment at KIMS hospital in Hyderabad. He died on 4 January 2015 at the age of 57. He was cremated at Mahaprasthanam Crematorium in Jubilee Hills. His death was mourned by many Tollywood stars and politicians, who paid tribute to his contribution to Telugu cinema.
