He was one of the first star comedians of Telugu cinema.[1][2][3] CareerKasturi Siva Rao started his career in the film industry as a movie narrator for the silent films produced at that time. Besides providing commentary, he was also a projector operator and had a unique humor to his fame. Theaters would advertise films as having "commentary by Siva Rao".[2][3] He became an actor with the film Vara Vikrayam in 1939 and shot into the limelight with Chudamani in 1941. B N Reddy’s Swarga Seema in 1945 and Bala Raju in 1948 catapulted him to stardom.[4] He became a lead actor with the film Guna Sundari Katha in 1949, in which he played the role of a cursed prince.
