Exclusive: Krishna Bharadwaj on how Tenali Rama changed his life; says ‘I had a terrible life, no money and was on medication for depression’

Professionally and personally, both ways the show means a lot to me. Professionally, the show has been a benchmark of my life. Before 2017, I was out of work for 4 years. I had a terrible life, no money, no social life, no nothing. I was struggling hard to survive in the industry. Coming from a small town and a humble family, I had no monetary or financial help from anybody. It was a difficult time when Tenali came to me and beggars can’t choosers.
