Megastar Chiranjeevi has said that it is indeed a proud moment for all the Telugus and for the entire film industry to see Telugu actors shining at the international stage.
He was speaking at a media gathering on Wednesday morning ahead of his film ‘Waltair Veerayya’s release.
“Today I woke up to hear something remarkable. I’ve already tweeted congratulating the team of ‘RRR’ for winning one of its two nominations at Golden Globe Awards. Producer Danayya, lyricist Bose, music maestro Keeravani garu who is the man behind ‘RRR’ Naatu Naatu song and everyone in the entire team. And the lead cast of ‘RRR’ – Ram Charan and Jr NTR who have impressed us with their charm — I congratulate them from my bottom of my heart. It’s very proud moment for me. It’s a good start today,” said Megastar while interacting with web and print media reporters.
With Telugu cinema going places reaching milestones, breaking box office records set by predecessors, do you think Telugu cinema has entered golden period?
“Golden period started for Telugu fim industry with the works of great screenwriters of the past KV Reddy garu and HR Reddy garu, then it continued later as time evolved. I think we’re seeing a new peak now. The recognition that Telugu cinema has got now is outstanding. South directors Shankar has his period, now SS Rajamouli has had his time. Now, films like ‘RRR’ and ‘KGF’ have really put south cinema on top,” he said.
