After Pokiri, Mahesh Babu has reached a new top in the industry.

The man, who now seems to be growing an image of aloofness, has stayed away from the media.

Now after a long time, he made himself to the media for some serious questioning.

With a success to back him, Mahesh was that much more convincing and confident to take on whatever the media had to throw at him.

‘I wanted to speak to the media after Pokiri, rather than before it as it would had felt like promoting it. Now, after the movie’s success, I can talk freely and more relaxed frame of mind’.

Mahesh patiently answered all questions about the film, his new projects and his life after the marriage to Namratha Shirodkar.

Mahesh feels this is the start of a new phase in his career.

Mahesh also gave due credit to the Pokiri’s director Puri Jagan for the effort he put in the success of the film.

Talking about his next project Sainikudu, with Gunasekhar, Mahesh said it would also be a huge commercial entertainer.

Mahesh also said he was committed to do movies for Durga Arts, M S Raju’s Sumanth Arts, Arjuna Raju Roja Movies, Manjula Mega Super Good Films and G Ramesh Babu’s Krishna Productions.

Mahesh’s biggest happiness has been that Chiranjeevi personally called him up to congratulate him on the good show in Pokiri.
