  5. Dr Raj is an all time role model for all the individuals especially for the youngsters. Every single movie of him gives us a moral lesson on how to maintain Peace Love Courage Enthusiasm Trust within us. He has sung thousands of devotional songs. His contribution is like an ocean, Lakhs of people have changed their negative attitudes towards positive sides by just watching his movies. If god had permited all his devotees would have happily given one year life span to him so that he would have leaved thousands and lakhs of years with us, but still he remains immortal in our hearts we remember him every single day listen to his songs every time..so we request you Please enhance this website by adding more and more photos and videos of our beloved annaavru We all love you so much “Dr Raj The all time King”
