Lakshmi Parvathi Comments On Harikrishna Death
Lakshmi Parvathi, NTR’s second wife and step-mother to Harikrishna, said that he was the bravest of all children and never knew back-stabbing. “He was just, did not know back-stabbing and was the most loved among all children. His father’s soul must be going through agony now,” she said.
“I do not know why such unfortunate things are happening. I don’t know about TDP, but true fans of NTR will be saddened by this untimely death. He was with his father when the latter started his own party and was the driver of the Chaitanya Ratham – the party campaign vehicle. He used to help people even at the slightest problem. It is too sad and unfortunate. I don’t know why God doesn’t have any mercy,” she added.
Harikrishna, the brother-in-law to Andhra Pradesh chief minister Chandrababu Naidu, served as a cabinet member and former MP, too. Harikrishna is the fourth son of NTR, who is survived by his wife and sons- Jr NTR and Kalyan Ram. His other son Janakiram died in a road accident in 2014.
