I am asked why I do only one film a year: Mahesh Babu

Mahesh Babu, Keerthy Suresh and Parasuram Petla recently interacted with fans to promote ‘Sarkaru Vaari Paata’. The interaction, described as an unfiltered convo with ‘Super Fans’, has clicked with the audience big-time.

The ‘Sarileru Neekevvaru’ actor shared interesting anecdotes from his personal life. One of them pertained to what his father Superstar Krishna often tells him. “My father asks me often why I do only one film a year. He asks me to do 4-5 movies per year like he did,” Mahesh revealed. 

When asked if he has a tattoo on his body in real life, the ‘Pokiri’ actor said he doesn’t have one. Touching upon the theme of EMIs in ‘SVP’, Mahesh suggested that the theme of raising a voice against poor and middle-class people having to pay EMIs regardless of the situation excited him. 

Referring to the scene where Mahesh hugs his pillow in the presence of Vennela Kishore’s character in a comedy scene, the superstar said, “I did it spontaneously.” Parasuram revealed that Mahesh had done a few other moves in comedy scenes on his own.
