Personal life

Pawan Kalyan is born to Konidela Venkata Rao and Anjana Devi[citation needed]. He is the one of the youngest brothers of Chiranjeevi, a prominent actor, politician in Andhra Pradesh, and producer Nagendra Babu.[9] After the divorce with spouse Nandini,[10] Pawan Kalyan was married to Renu Desai on 28 January 2009, an actress who co-starred with him in the movies Badri and Johnny.[10] The couple has two children, a son named Akira Nandan born in 2004, and a baby girl named Aadhya born in 2010. Pawan Kalyan favorite director is Akira Kurosawa and hence he named his son after him as Akira Nandan. His wife Renu Desai is an Actress and a Costume designer for most of his films.

Kalyan is trained in martial arts.[11][12][13][14] He holds a black belt in karate[15] and has displayed his skills in several of his films. He publicly performed his martial arts skills at several auditoriums.[16] He was awarded the title "Pawan", symbolizing Hanuman. From then, Kalyan Babu became popular as Pawan Kalyan.[17][18][19]

His brother-in-law Allu Aravind is an Indian film producer. Ram Charan Tej and Allu Arjun are other actors from the family. Pawan Kalyan is a vegetarian. He is highly influenced by Che Guevara, Jiddu Krishnamurti and Swami Vivekananda's philosophy.[20]

Career

1996–2001

Pawan Kalyan entered the Telugu movie industry with Akkada Abbai Ikkada Ammayi as Kalyan Babu. This film was notable for his martial arts action sequences. After his first movie, his second movie was Gokulamlo Sita followed by Suswagatham.

In 1998, Tholi Prema released. It initially had average talks but the treatment and the storyline along with melodious and balanced music by Deva and fresh treatment from debutant director, A. Karunakaran made up for a super hit run for the movie. Tholi Prema is the first recognition in Pawan Kalyan's career. The movie also received 6 Nandi Awards and Winner of National Award for the Best Feature Film(Telugu).[21][22]

After the movie Tholiprema, Pawan acted in Thammudu (1999). This film was loosely inspired from Aamir Khan's film "Jo Jeeta wohi Sikandar" with the difference being that Pawan Kalyan played the role of a kickboxer. After Thammudu, Kalyan teamed up with another debutant director, Puri Jagannadh, for his next film, Badri.

During the shooting of Badri, Producer A. M. Rathnam signed him for a simultaneous production of his movie (Vijay has acted in the Tamil version) Khushi. Khushi directed by S. J. Surya exploited Kalyan's loverboy-cum-action hero image. The ego clashes between the protagonists (Kalyan and Bhoomika) were widely appreciated and the film went on to become the biggest hit of his career. The trade pundits started comparing his box office performance with that of his elder brother Chiranjeevi. Thammudu, Badri, Chiranjeevi's Daddy and Khushi's action sequences were choreographed by Pawan Kalyan which were well appreciated by the audiences and added a new dimension to Kalyan's loverboy image.

2003–present

After the release of Khushi, Pawan Kalyan took a long gap of two years in his film career. He went to Japan for a brief period to learn a martial art called Aikido. He learnt this stunt to use in his first directorial venture Johnny. His next release Gudumba Shankar directed by Veera Shankar and produced by Nagendra Babu did moderately well at the box office.Balu ABCDEFG which was released on 6 January 2005 was directed by A. Karunakaran. The film was produced by C. Ashwini Dutt under his production company Vyjayanthi Movies.

On 3 May 2006 Bangaram was released which was directed by a Tamil director Dharani and was produced by A.M. Ratnam who was the producer of Pawan Kalyan's film Kushi was the producer of Bangaram. In the same year Annavaram was released directed by Bhimaneni Srinivasa Rao of Suswagatham fame. Mega Supergood Films produced the film released on 29 December 2006, proved to be an average grosser at the box office. The soundtrack of the film, released on 14 December 2006, received a good response. It is a remake of the Tamil film Thirupaachi, which starred Joseph Vijay and Trisha Krishnan. Pawan Kalyan's pet project Satyagrahi, which he was supposed to direct, got shelved in 2006 due to unstated reasons.

In 2008, Jalsa directed by Trivikram Srinivas released and received good reviews and became one of the biggest hit in his career which collected more than Rs 50 crores worldwide and proved profitable to the distributors. The movie went on to become one of the highest grossers in 2008 and Pawan Kalyan was nominated for Filmfare Award for Best Actor,though he was at a far stretch in winning it. The soundtrack of the film was launched on 29 February 2008. The audio rights were sold to Aditya Music for 90 lakhs, the highest for a Telugu film till date. The music got very good reviews from websites and an excellent response from the public itself. The music has been topping the charts since its release.Devi Sri Prasad received the 2008 Santosham Best Music Director Award for his work on the film's music.[23] His subsequent release Puli arrived on 10 September amidst huge expectations because of big names associated with Pawan Kalyan like A.R.Rahman, Binod Pradhan and S. J. Surya but the movie turned out to be a big disappointment but the soundtrack got overwhelming positive reviews and became a hot seller. The audio sales reached a total of 1.6 lakhs of CDs in the first three days, which is an all-time record in Telugu film history.[24]

Actor turned producer Ganesh Babu produced Pawan Kalyan latest movie Theenmaar directed by Jayanth C. Paranjee the remake of Love Aaj Kal which released on 14 April 2011. Given the moderate budget and superb openings, the movie has managed to do a good business and ended up being a commercial and critical success.[25]

Pawan Kalyan has finished his part of shooting for an untitled Jesus Christ Movie under the direction of Singeetam Srinivas Rao. His next film Panjaa is currently in its post-production stage with re-recording alone remaining and is scheduled for a release on 9 December 2011.
