Directing a film requires a different set of skills. It is a difficult job, and I am happy being an actor.
Initially, when I joined Twitter, I was active. But, later, I felt that whatever I was tweeting or saying on a social platform turned out to be a little boring.
The only thing I have learnt over the years is that if you enjoy your work and put in the best efforts, it will show. If you follow this process, things work out. But if you go chasing a formula, success will elude you.
Who cares and remembers if my last film was a success? I need to work harder.
I really don't know the secret to it, but I'd like to think my desirability is a combination of my personality, my image, and, most importantly, the kind of films I do.
Men who are not loyal to their wives are foolish.
I believe children's blessings are very powerful.
I'm under pressure with all my films. And the reason we are always under pressure is because it's only in our profession that months and even years of hard work is judged by the first show on Friday.
Telugu audiences love cinema. They won't let a good film down, and they've proved this with the way they accepted 'Srimanthudu.'
Personal life? I'd like to keep it private.
My son Gautham usually doesn't watch my films. But he watched 'Srimanthudu' in the theatre.
Emotions should be real; one shouldn't come across as acting.
I have been very pleased at the response we have got for 'SVSC.'
When people say they take hits and flops in their stride, I personally feel that they are just lying. Of course, I'm upset when my movies flop. I take it very personally.
I eat right and stay healthy as much as possible.
My father usually does not talk to me about my films, and it was a pleasant moment when he appreciated me the first time.
Since my father was a superstar, without me knowing it, I became a child star, as my father's entire fan base liked me, and I can't thank my father enough for this, as it was so effortless.
C Kalyan has been amazing and totally committed as a producer.
'Srimanthudu' was very important for me and my career at that time, so I was tensed. But for 'Brahmotsavam,' honestly speaking, I am more excited because of its content. I have attempted something new, and I am keen to see how the audience receives it.
Over the years, I have worked very hard to achieve what I have so far. But I've not been alone in this journey. A lot of the credit for this goes to my fans - it's because of them that I'm here today.
