Google celebrates the 93rd birthday of actor Sivaji Ganesan with Google Doodle.
Google on Friday celebrated the 93rd birthday of legendary actor Sivaji Ganesan with Google Doodle.
The Doodle, illustrated by Bangalore, India-based guest artist Noopur Rajesh Choksi, celebrates the 93rd birthday of Sivaji Ganesan, "one of India’s first method actors and widely considered among the nation’s most influential actors of all time," said Google in a post.
Ganesan was born on this day in 1928 as Ganesamoorthy.
He acquired the name ‘Sivaji’ based on his stage name after he played the role of the 17th century king, Shivaji, in a theatrical play in December 1945.

Ganesan made his on-screen debut in the 1952 film “Parasakthi,” the first of his over 300 films spanning a nearly five-decade cinematic career.
