Between his last birthday and this birthday, Sharwanand has come to be called 'Mesmerizing Star'. The one on a roll is not the one who does any and every film. He plays his cards well.

That said, luck too is heavily on his side. 'Shatamanam Bhavati', which strongly withstood competition from two landmark films of two huge stars this Sankranthi, is a case in point. He got to do the family entertainer because Sai Dharam Tej was not available. Rest, as they say, is a 'mesmerizing' history.

Hit after hit has made him a hat-trick star to reckon with.

'Amma Cheppindi', 'Gamyam', 'Andari Bandhuvaya', 'Prasthanam' and 'Journey', on the one hand, 'Run Raja Run', 'Malli Malli Idi Rani Roju', 'Express Raja', 'Shatamanam Bhavati' and the upcoming 'Radha', on the other hand, show that he never had any fantasies about doing powerful roles for the sake of it. From being a chocolate boy to a family hero, he has been after performance-oriented roles for sure.

IndiaGlitz wishes Sharwa a very happy birthday and a successful year ahead.
