Pic Talk: Chiru's kiss on 'rival' actor goes viral

At an event of the Movie Artists Association today, Megastar Chiranjeevi and Dr. Mohan Babu exhibited bonhomie like never before.  It was a spontaneous display of affection when the 'Sye Raa' actor hugged and kissed Babu.  

Speaking on the occasion, Mohan Babu said that Chiranjeevi always wants to joke about him whenever they cross paths.  We never have any ill will towards each other.  I want to joke along and he too wants to.  We have small differences like brothers in a family.  We are one.  We are like family.  I swear by God, Mohan Babu said.

At this, Chiru got up from his chair and hugged Babu from behind.  He then planed a peck on his cheeks.  

The senior actors have always been seen as rivals by their fans, especially after Mohan Babu openly hit out at Chiru's camp for allegedly neglecting him and some big names like Dasari Narayana Rao during the Telugu film industry's Vajrotsavam more than 10 years ago.  In an interview last year, Mohan Babu said that he has nothing against Chiru and Pawan Kalyan.  I don't even remember the controversy.  Honestly.  I have nothing against them, he said.
