Inter-Caste Marriages In Nandamuri Family?

The Nandamuri family is by far the most noted and influential families in the Telugu cine circuit and arguably in the entire state. While their unity is one aspect, it is said that they are very against inter caste marriages and that has more to do with their caste feeling.

For instance, Mohan Babu said ok when Manchu Vishnu wanted to marry Viraanica Reddy, Chiranjeevi showed resistance at start and though he was upset at first about Srija marrying a Brahmin boy Sirish, later on, he became ok.  Now, even the crafty Allu Aravind seems to be okay with Bunny marrying a Reddy girl.

But history has shown that the Nandamuri family kept Hari Krishna’s second wife away and never allowed her into their family. Even NTR junior was given the welcome after many years since they realized his worth for political and other reasons. Without taking a risk, Chandrababu Naidu ensured personally that junior’s marriage gets fixed with Narne Srinivas’s daughter. That way, it appears the Nandamuri chauvinism is quite at its peak when compared to others.
