We all are aware of how important star power is when it comes to the film business. While the presence of popular stars in a film increases its business prospects, when the same actor appears in more than a single role in the film, the fun just increases manifold.
While a large number of actors have played multiple characters in a single film, there is one actor who is renowned for playing triple roles in the maximum number of films. Natashekhara Krishna, also known as Superstar Krishna, in his heyday, played triple roles in many Telugu movies. This made him the only actor in the world to play triple roles in maximum films. Let’s have a look at his films.
Kumara Raja
Kumararaja was the first film in which superstar Krishna played a triple role. The film is a remake of the Kannada movie Shankar Guru starring Rajkumar as the hero. Directed by P. Sambashivarao, the movie was a super hit at the box office.
