Chiranjeevi’s Iconic Legacy

Chiranjeevi remains one of the most celebrated stars in Indian cinema. He holds the record for the most “Industry Hits” in Telugu cinema, with eight films emerging as the top-grossers of their time — an achievement unmatched in the industry’s 100-year history.

Renowned as one of the finest dancers in Indian cinema, he was honoured with the Padma Bhushan in 2006 and the Padma Vibhushan in 2024. The same year, he earned a Guinness World Record as the most prolific actor-dancer in Indian film history.

Upcoming Project

Last seen in Bhola Shankar, directed by Meher Ramesh — a remake of the Tamil hit Vedalam — Chiranjeevi is now gearing up for his next big venture, Vishwambhara. The fantasy action film stars Chiranjeevi alongside Trisha Krishnan, Kunal Kapoor, and Ashika Ranganath in lead roles.
