Toolywood's Real Star Srihari died on Wednesday at Mumbai's Leelavathi hospital. He was 49. He was said to be suffering from cancer and other ailments and had been admitted there for treatment. Srihari was one of the very few actors from Telangana who became part of tinsel town acting in several movies. Srihari was married to 'Disco' Shanthi. She, however, stopped acting after she got married.

Srihari was last seen in the big film 'Toofan' starring Ram Charan Tej. He had also played an important role in 'Magadheera' in which Ram Charan Tej was the hero. 'Magadheera' went on to become a huge hit. Only last weekend a film titled 'Police game' got released after several postponements.

Not only did Srihari act as a hero, he also portrayed villains roles and also character roles. Only last year, he made an appearance with his entire family in public for the audio release of '3' starring Dhanush and Shruti Haasan in Hyderabad.
