Tollywood actor Nandamuri Tarakaratna has passed away after battling for his life for the past few weeks. He suffered a massive heart attack while attending a TDP roadshow in Chittoor and was rushed to a hospital in Kuppam. Despite receiving treatment from health experts at Narayana Hrudayalaya Hospital in Bengaluru and support from a team of cardiology specialists from the US, his heart stopped functioning for some time and he couldn't recover. The news of Tarakaratna's demise has left TDP Chief N Chandrababu Naidu shocked and deeply saddened. In a tweet, he expressed his regret that despite efforts to save him and the treatment of highly skilled doctors, Tarakaratna could not be saved. The actor's family, including Nandamuri Balakrishna, has also been left devastated by the loss. "After 23 days of fighting with death, Tarakaratna finally left us in a state of mourning. I pray to God to grant peace to the soul of Tarakaratna," Chandrababu tweeted.
