The crew of 'Waltair Veerayya' has come in for a tribute from Megastar Chiranjeevi. In a video clip put out by Mythri Movie Makers, we see the legendary actor describe the "cine workers" as strong-minded individuals and soldiers.

In the video, we see on-the-location visuals pertaining to 'Waltair Veerayya'. "We shoot movies in tough landscapes. We struggle in the jungles, we shoot in inclement weather. For us, all struggle is lovely. Our destination is one thing: entertaining the audience. We make the impossible possible onscreen. We build bridges over oceans. For months, we stay away from our families so that you are entertained," the 'Bholaa Shankar' actor says.

He adds that the strong-willed nature of cine workers (which includes everyone from the hero and director down) is what keeps them going. The 'GodFather' actor describes the film people as soldiers and more. "Cinema is our caste," he signs off.

The tribute reflects Chiranjeevi's personality. He is a genuine star who loves his job and is ever grateful to the people he works with.

Meanwhile, 'Waltair Veerayya' is enjoying a positive word of mouth across the Telugu Stats and in the US.
