SV Ranga Rao is known for short temper, dipsomania and love for food. But he stopped drinking during the shooting of the film 'Sampoorna Ramayanam'. He portrayed the role of Ravana in that.
Bapu-Ramana was the director and writer of that film. S V Ranga Rao used to trouble the film makers regarding his food and drink generally. But he gave great respect to Bapu-Ramana and cooperated with them.
That was a wonder in those days.
