Tollywood is a place where we usually
see personal grudges, egos and jealousies among the artists. There are
communication gaps and rivalries, which are frequently seen, among the
artists and technicians. One hero, however, appears to be separated from
above group of people and he is none other than Megastar chiranjeevi. chiranjeevi
has friendly terms with the heroes of all the generations such as late
NTR, late ANR, Krishna, Krishnam Raju, late Sobhan Babu, Balakrishna,
Venkatesh, Nagarjuna, Mahesh Babu and many more artists. chiranjeevi
is annayya not only for Pawan Kalyan and Nagababu but also for
Raviteja, Srikanth, Sunil, VV Vinayak, Krishna Vamsi, Prabhudeva,
Lawrence and others, as they call chiranjeevi as 'Annayya'.
In contrast to chiranjeevi's
attitude, there are some artists and technicians who suffer with ego
feelings and exhibit strange behavior. A senior most talkative director
had not talked with ANR over a decade due to ego clashes. A senior hero
and studio owner maintains separate coterie. A villain turned hero feels
he is the superior with his dominating and commanding voice. A senior
star of chiranjeevi's
generation, has no good talking terms with Nagarjuna.As if he were a
super duper mass star, a faded out hero expressed his wish of doing a
multi-starrer with chiranjeevi.
Of course, nothing wrong in wishing like that but his intention is
different revealing it. Anyways, let's hope, tollywood bigwigs, give up
their egos and join hands for the development of Telugu cinema on par
with the international standards.
