On June 27th, Nandamuri Taraka Ratna, the noted actor, and cousin of NTR fainted at a road show when he was campaigning for his party TDP in the Kuppam area of the Chittoor district. He was rushed to a corporate hospital in Bangalore and was given medical care. Taraka Ratna's uncle and actor Balakrishna revealed that his nephew is being given the best of medical care.

But in tragic news, Tarakaratna passed away in Bangalore earlier today. His family members rushed to the hospital where he was pronounced dead. All these days, he was on life support and Balakrishna was at his beside. The Narayana Hrudayala hospital authorities released a statement that Taraka Ratna had a cardiac arrest and was admitted to their hospital in critical condition but they could not save him.
