Those who know Maharabharata will definitely find the character Brihannala intriguing. Nandamuri Taraka Rama Rao Sr. is a divine performer. He lives in every character. He gives mortal shape to every role he played. This generation might not completely understand how great an actor he is.

Here is a small glimpse of it. Not many can portray a transgender character and impress everyone watching. The below clip is from the movie Narthanashala, where NTR played the dual roles of Arjuna and Bruhannala. While everyone knows the former, not many know the latter. Bruhannala is Arjuna in disguise. Using a curse, Arjuna chooses to live the 13th year of exile as a transgender, Bruhannala.

When Kauravas doubt Pandavas are in the kingdom Matsya ruled by Virata, they attack with a large army. Virata’s son Uttara Kumara pledges to fight against the mighty army and Bruhannala comes in as his charioteer. On the same battlefield, the Pandavas declare the end of the exile period. Bruhannala regains his form as Arjuna.

NTR lived in both roles and there is a complete contrast between the powerful Arjuna and the Bruhannala characters he portrayed. We are blessed to have an actor like him.
