Producer Vedaraju Timber (54) is no more. Known for films like Allari Naresh's Madatha Kaja and Sangharshana (released in 2011), he passed away this morning.
Vedaraju was a businessman. For decades, he grew from strength to strength in the construction sector. Despite being actively involved in the construction industry, he pursued his passion for cinema by producing films.
His untimely demise occurred while he was preparing for his next film project, which he was planning to announce this year. He had been undergoing treatment for a lung-related illness at a private hospital in Hyderabad for some time. His family members and close associates were hopeful about his recovery.
Vedaraju Timber is survived by his wife and daughter. His final rites will be conducted today.
