Personal life
Kranthi Madhav was born in Khammam and brought up in Warangal. His professor A.F. Mathews introduced him to film making. He completed his post-graduation in 2002 and had two offers. One was to work in a national channel for a salary of ₹12K or to work in Ramoji film city for a salary of ₹4.5K. His father suggested that he should take the RFC job because it would keep him near to the goal of becoming a filmmaker.
