Timeline

1975

Sumanth Kumar Yarlagadda (born 9 February 1975), known mononymously as Sumanth, is an Indian actor who works predominantly in Telugu cinema.

He is the eldest grandson of Telugu actor Akkineni Nageswara Rao.

He is also a partner in Annapurna Studios.

Sumanth was born in Hyderabad, India, on 9 February 1975.

He is the only son of Surendra Yarlagadda and Satyavathi Akkineni.

He is the eldest grandchild of the Telugu film actor Akkineni Nageswara Rao.

A few months after his birth, Sumanth's parents returned to the US where they were residing.

Sumanth, however, remained in India on the request of his grandfather Akkineni Nageswara Rao, who was then on a hiatus from films after a major heart surgery.

The latter had often said that his busy acting career prevented him from fully experiencing fatherhood with his own children, so he wished to raise his first grandchild himself.

Subsequently, Sumanth was adopted by his maternal grandparents.

1985

Sumanth's father, Surendra Yarlagadda, is a former film producer, noted for several hit films such as Muchataga Mugguru (1985), Collector Gari Abbayi (1987), Rao Gari Illu (1988), Siva (1989), and Gaayam (1993).

He has one younger sister: Supriya Yarlagadda, who is the executive director of Annapurna Studios.

Actor Nagarjuna Akkineni is his maternal uncle.

Actors Naga Chaitanya, Akhil Akkineni, and Sushanth are his cousins.

1991

Sumanth studied at the Hyderabad Public School, graduating in 1991.

For his undergraduate studies, he enrolled in an engineering course in Michigan.

1997

Realising after two years that it wasn't in his best interest, he transferred to Columbia College Chicago, from where he graduated with a B. A. in Film Studies in 1997.

1999

Sumanth's most notable films are Prema Katha (1999), Yuvakudu (2000), Satyam(2003), Gowri (2004), Godavari (2006), Madhumasam (2008), Golconda High School (2011), Malli Raava (2017), and Sita Ramam (2022).

Sumanth made his debut as a lead actor in Ram Gopal Varma's Prema Katha in 1999.

Although not commercially successful, the film was critically acclaimed and received five Nandi awards, including the Nandi Award for Best Feature Film.

2000

Even though it was just an average earner when released, his second film Yuvakudu (2000) directed by Karunakaran would go on to be widely considered an underrated film later on.

Sumanth’s lean box office run continued with his next films Pelli Sambandham, Ramma Chilakamma, and Snehamante Idera, despite popular actors from his family Akkineni Nageswara Rao and Nagarjuna sharing screen in two of them.

2003

Sumanth’s box office breakthrough came in late 2003 with Satyam (2003 film) where he played the role of a struggling lyricist.

In addition to commercial success, Sumanth received critical acclaim, with Idlebrain.com commenting, "there is not even a single moment where you can find any shortcomings in his histrionics".

2004

In August 2004, Sumanth married former actress Keerthi Reddy.

This was followed by another hit Gowri in 2004.

This action drama was a remake of the Tamil film Thirumalai.

Idlebrain.com Jeevi wrote, “Sumanth was good as usual and performed really well in fights”.

2005

After consecutive hits, he continued in the action genre with Dhana 51 (2005), which was a flop, and the average running Mahanandi (2006).

2006

They were divorced amicably in 2006.

Sumanth altered his path in 2006, starring in Sekhar Kammula's Godavari, which remains one of the most acclaimed films in his career.

On top of immense critical and commercial success, this film also garnered five Nandi awards and a Filmfare award.

Rediff.com said that Godavari is “a film that reminds us that cinema can be so much more ”.

Sumanth next acted in Chinnodu, which released in October 2006 and was an average grosser.

2007

In 2007, he starred in the romantic drama Madhumasam, produced by D. Ramanaidu and directed by Chandra Siddhartha.

This film was a hit, having a 100 days theatrical run.

Sumanth next did the lead in Classmates, which generated a curiosity as it was the first time that its Director K. Vijaya Bhaskar was without his usual collaborator Trivikram Srinivas as dialogue writer.

Additionally, it was a remake of the trend-setting Malayalam film Classmates.

Despite positive reviews, the film however failed at the box office.

2008

Sumanth’s next two films were Pourudu (2008), which was a moderate success, and Boni (2009) which was a failure.
