EXCLUSIVE: Dharam Tej speaks on Pawan Kalyan-Allu Arjun controversy

  • IndiaGlitz, [Thursday,August 11 2016]

In his interview to IndiaGlitz, when asked about his response to the shoutings by Pawan Kalyan's fans during the audio release of 'Thikka', Sai Dharam Tej has said that everybody has a way of dealing with things. Asked as to why he said on the dais that he will shout 'Jai Powerstar, Jai Megastar' slogans along with the fans, Teju told us, "Pawan Kalyan garu is my 'mavayya'. I grew up admiring Megastar and Power Star. I would take pleasure in pitching for them".

Post the release of 'Sarrainodu', Allu Arjun waded into an unwarranted social/mainstream media-generated controversy when he used the words 'Cheppanu, brother' as a response to the interruptions by a group of Pawan's fans, who shouted that he speak about Power Star. Post that incident, it became the talk of the town and the Stylish Star, eventually, took it upon himself to put forth the rationale behind he saying those words.

In this context, Dharam Tej's perfectly normal response, too, became an object of media commentary, which drew the contrast in the responses of Stylish Star and Teju.

Whatever it is, Teju's admiration for his two Mega 'mavayyas' is very clear.
