Taking the debate on his long-pending 150th film a step further, Chiranjeevi said that he is waiting for a subject that could make for a milestone in his career. He doesn't think that doing a movie while being a full-time politician is difficult. He points out to the example of NTR.
NT Rama Rao garu did a movie when he was a Chief Minister. He did two-three films when he was the Opposition leader. Though he acted in films, he was not distanced to politics, he says. Lest we fall into false conclusions, Chiru adds, In any case, I have not take a decision on my 150th film.
He says that he is jealous of Ram Charan. I am happy and proud that he is acting in his first Bollywood film. At the same time, I am jealous of him! I acted in a Hindi film (Prathi Bandh) 12 years after I became an actor. I am even more happy that he is debuting in Hindi through the remake of Zanjeer. It gave Big B the image of an 'Angry Young Man, he says.
He says that Charan has matured as an actor since his first film. There was so much maturity and ease in his dance moves and the emoting in Racha. I saw myself in Vana Vana song.
