A few days after the death of veteran actor Krishna, his superstar son Mahesh Babu shared an emotional post on Instagram, on Thursday. Krishna died at the age of 79 in Hyderabad earlier this month. Posting a throwback picture of his father, Mahesh Babu wrote: "Your life was celebrated...Your passing is being celebrated even more... Such is your greatness. You lived your life fearlessly... daring and dashing was your nature. My inspiration... My courage... and all that I looked up to and all that really mattered are gone just like that. But strangely, I feel this strength in me which I never really felt before... Now I'm fearless... Your light will shine in me forever... I will carry your legacy forward... I will make you even more proud... Love you Nanna.. My Superstar."
