14 Jun
Summary
- Chiranjeevi feels Ram Charan has surpassed him as an actor.
- SP Balasubrahmanyam encouraged Chiranjeevi to do more content-driven films.
- 'Peddi' is a rustic sports drama with a social message, unlike 'Dangal'.

Megastar Chiranjeevi recently engaged with the team of the successful film 'Peddi', sharing his thoughts on its impact and his son Ram Charan's performance. Chiranjeevi revealed that he has been consistently hearing that Ram Charan has surpassed him as an actor with his role in 'Peddi', a sentiment he finds both proud as a father and slightly challenging as a fellow actor.
Reflecting on his career, Chiranjeevi shared a conversation with the late legendary singer S. P. Balasubrahmanyam. SPB had advised Chiranjeevi to focus more on performance-oriented films, noting his potential beyond commercial cinema. Balasubrahmanyam also conveyed that director K. Balachander once saw shades of both Kamal Haasan and Rajinikanth in Chiranjeevi.
