A little birdie says that a group of personalities in the industry are suddenly wondering why Nandamuri Tarak Ratna hasn't risen to stardom in the industry despite the Nandamuri brand. The actor made his debut with Okato Number Kurrodu and he created a record by signing 9 films at a time. After his first film, Tarak was seen as the most sought out actor of Tollywood. But Tarak never really could strike the chord and get into the top league. All of Tarak's subsequrnt releases failed to click at the box office. It was only in 2009 that Tarak got wide appreciation for his negative performance in Amaravati. The actor also won a Nandi award for it. Some more films of Tarak are under production. Lets wait and watch if luck favours the Nandamuri boy.
