For decades Naresh has remained a natural entertainer, winning audiences first as a hero in Jandhyala’s vibrant eighties.
His comic timing, boyish charm and effortless dialogue delivery made him a familiar presence in homes and theatres.
Those early successes built a lasting bond with viewers and prepared him for a journey that would later reveal deeper shades of performance and emotional range.
As years passed he moved gracefully into character roles, surprising many with his depth.
The pathos filled, method driven presence in Rangasthalam showed an actor willing to reinvent himself.
Whether as the endearing Bangarraju in Shatamanam Bhavati or the cheerful happy man in Nari Nari Naduma Murari, he displayed ease across moods, proving his command over humour, warmth and restraint.
Now in Hey Balwant his name appears on screen as Navarasaraya Vijayakrishna Naresh.
Audiences have long known him as VK Naresh, a name he once chose for himself, and the new prefix feels earned.
It celebrates a performer who has touched every emotional note and continues to adapt with grace, making versatility his lasting identity. |
