New Delhi: Mahesh Babu’s upcoming film ‘Guntur Kaaram’ had a pre-release event in Andhra Pradesh’s Guntur. Deeply moved by the immense love from his fans and memories of his late father, the actor openly shared his emotions at the event. 'Guntur Kaaram', directed by Trivikram Srinivas, is scheduled for release on January 12. The film also stars actresses Sreeleela and Meenakshi Chaudhary.
The film is a milestone for Mahesh Babu as this marks the 25th year of his acting career. In an emotional speech addressed to his passionate and loyal fans present in the event, he said, “Nothing will match the love I have gotten from you (fans) throughout these years,” and “The love has only increased as the years went by. I am at a loss for words. I always feel like I can do nothing but bow my head and join my hands in respect.”
The fans reciprocated the gesture and joined hands too.
The actor had recently lost his father and shared that he would wait for his call after every film to hear his honest feedback. “I’ll look to my fans for that love instead,” said the actor, “From now on, you are my mother, you are my father, you are my everything,” he added.
