Three Body Doubles for an Aged Tollywood Hero
It’s a well-known fact in the film industry that one of Tollywood’s biggest stars relies heavily on a body double, not just for action sequences, but also for dance performances and long shots. This body double is a Telugu man who previously worked in Australia and now enjoys a comfortable lifestyle by doubling for the top actor.
But the surprises don’t end there. Another senior hero, currently in his 50s, reportedly employs not just one, but three body doubles. Known for having limited stamina and being involved in ventures outside acting, he depends on these doubles to handle the physically demanding parts of his roles.
Today, nearly all leading heroes in Tollywood use body doubles to take on strenuous scenes, allowing them to focus on their personal lives. Much like how famous writers rely on ghostwriters, these body doubles have quietly become the “ghost heroes” of the industry.
