ANR's Confused Statements About 'Drinking'

Share

The legendary Akkineni Nageswara Rao has often been known for his self discipline and strict approach. However, one issue seems to have confused those who have been following his statements. That is ANR’s stand towards alcohol and drinking. In an interview given to ABN-AJ channel, ANR has reportedly said he never drank and once friends forced him during his younger days but he just acted like he had. Much before that, in one speech, he recalled about someone asking his health secret and revealed that after his bypass surgery, doctor prescribed a permissible amount of alcohol and that’s what keeps him fresh and healthy looking. Before that, in one of the interviews for the Eenadu supplement, ANR maintained that he never drank or even smelled alcohol. All this has confused many and though they are trying to figure it out, the industry folks say that they know ANR’s brand and comment as to why he has to bluff at this age.
