TL;DR: Legendary media boss 💼 Ramoji Rao wasn’t just about building big businesses 🚀 — he was about controlling stories, people, and politics 🎭. From #Eenadu to #ETV to #RamojiFilmCity, everything was a part of his silent power empire 🏰. His passing marks the end of a major chapter 📜 in Andhra-Telangana history! 🌟
Yaaro, 👋 you remember the naam #RamojiRao, right? 🤔 The man behind #Eenadu 📰, #ETV 📺, #RamojiFilmCity 🎥 and so much more? 💥 Well, Ramoji Rao garu, who passed away in June 2024 😢, wasn’t just a media man, bro. He was a full-time empire builder 🏰 using money 💸 and businesses just like tools to build power! 💣
Inka, 🧐 every single thing he touched - from small #PriyaPickles 🍯 to the giant #MargadarsiChitFund 🏦 - wasn’t about paisa alone. 🚫 It was about kaun story batayega, kaun suneega aur kaun command karega! 📢 That's the level of control this man wanted, and lowkey, achieved it too! 🔥
In Hyderabad’s sweltering summers 🌞, even top Telugu stars 🌟 were shown the door 🚪 from #RamojiFilmCity if producers didn’t pay their bills 🧾. Business is business, he would say, with no partiality at all! 😤 One small invoice? Gone! 👋 Legend has it that he personally ordered many evictions himself. 😱
Imagine guys, 📽️ growing up in the ’80s and ’90s, you couldn’t escape his naam! 🏃♂️ His #Eenadu newspaper was basically another political party 🗳️ — a kingmaker without contesting elections! 👑 In Andhra and Telangana, if Eenadu supported you, bhai you had full chances of becoming CM! 🚀
💡 Fun fact: His dream wasn't to be famous like filmi heroes 🎬... His dream was to become inevitable — like electricity ⚡ or water 💧! No escape only! 😂
Over the decades, Ramoji Rao created invisible pipelines connecting his movies 🎥 (#UshaKiranMovies), news 📰 (#Eenadu), TV 📺 (#ETV), finance 🏦 (#Margadarsi), hotels 🏨 (#DolphinHotels), and of course, entertainment megaspaces 🏰 (#RamojiFilmCity). 🚂 All these businesses became his private power grid! 💪
But listen 👂, all this was not without some serious vibes of feudal mindset 😬. Owning control over people’s opinions is not a small thing, especially when you are building media empires during politically turbulent times. 🛑
In the ’80s, #Eenadu was the biggest champion of the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) 🌾 under NTR garu. 🎭 His newspaper didn’t just report news, it shaped politics directly! 🗳️
Critics often said he played kingmaker 👑 without ever entering the public space officially. 🤐 Even Congress suffered badly because of his anti-Congress campaigns back in the day! 💔
Still, mass lo he was seen like a visionary leader, somebody who gave a major boost 🚀 to Telugu pride 💙 when the Hindi heartland dominated national media! 🎙️
🌟 MediaFx Take:From working class pov, 🤲 Ramoji Rao represented how big capitalists 🤵 use information as power ⚡ to control people. 💬 Instead of giving platform to ordinary voices 📢, media under him many times served the interests of the elite 😡. For true socialism and democracy ✊, media should be by the people, for the people, not by billionaire bosses! 🚩
