K.S. Prakash Rao (Director, Story, Screenplay)

Kovalapati Surya Prakash Rao (1914-96)Telugu director, also worked in Tamil. Born in Kolavennu, Krishna Dist., AP. Employed briefly as an insurance agent and by a gold jewellery firm. Associated with the Praja Natya Mandali, the Telugu wing of the IPTA. Started in films as lead actor in Ramabrahmam’s Apavadu (1941) and Patni (made in 1940, released in 1942: he played Kovalan); acted in R.S. Prakash’s Babruvahana (1942); produced and acted in L.V. Prasad’s Drohi (1948) for Swatantra Pics, which he replaced by his own Prakash Prod. (1949), producing and directing Modathi Rathri and Deeksha. Expanded this company into the Prakash Studio. 50s films were melodramas which later became psychological fantasies: e.g. Prem Nagar, a story of unrequited love drowned in liquor written by Kousalya Devi, and Kode Naagu, a remake of Kanagal’s demented love story Nagara Haavu (1972). Made Kannada films in the late 70s. His son K. Raghavendra Rao is a mainstream Telugu director of action fantasies.
