Not every actor in tollywood goes by the english name Superstar. Only the hero krishna received it; telugu names were used for other actors in his genre. Ghattamaneni Sivarama Krishna, better known as Krishna, was a courageous character that appeared in a variety of media. Even in politics at one point, he shown such audacity. It's interesting to note that he was N T Rama Rao's main rival or adversary in both politics and the film industry. krishna participated in, directed, and produced a number of movies that competed with NTR's movies at the time in theatres.

Krishna joined the congress under Rajiv Gandhi's leadership, ran in the 1989 elections from the eluru Parliament Constituency, and won the seat. ntr was leading the National Front at the time krishna joined, when ntr was at the pinnacle of his political career. By a margin of 71,000 votes, he defeated Bolla Bulliramaiah, the TDP's incumbent MP. However, krishna was defeated by Bulliramaiah in the ensuing 1991 election by a margin of 47,000 votes. It is believed that the animosity between ntr and krishna first surfaced in 1976, when both actors began production on their own Mahabharat-inspired films.

The talks for a compromise between them fell through while ntr was making the movie Dana Veera Sura Karna and krishna was making the movie Kurukshetram. When ntr was the chief minister of an unified Andhra Pradesh, he began making movies with political themes such as Ramarajyamlo Bheemaraju, Prajarajyam, Mukhyamantri, Nayakulaku Saval, Agniparvatam, Vajrayudham, Naa Pilupe Prabhanjanam, Sankharavam, Prajaprathinidhi, Rajakeeya Chadarangam krishna made his movie debut in 1994, the year ntr was elected chief minister for the second time, in telugu Veera Levara, Bharata Simham, and Sambhavam.
