Mahesh Babu has been the talk of the town since yesterday.
Sakaru Vaari Paata movie promotions brought the superstar into trouble when he was quizzed about his Bollywood debut. It all began when he said that he couldn’t be associated with an industry that couldn’t afford him. However, this morning, the actor clarified his comment by saying that he respected cinema and respects all languages.
Mukesh Bhatt, Mahesh Bhatt’s brother and filmmaker, has reacted to Mahesh Babu’s ‘Bollywood can’t afford me’ statement.
During the movie promotional event, when Mahesh Babu was asked about his comments on making a Bollywood debut, he had replied saying, “I did get a lot of offers in Hindi, but I don’t think they can afford me. I don’t want to waste my time working in an industry which can’t afford me. The stardom and the respect I get here [in the South] is huge, so I never really thought of leaving my industry and going to some other industry. I have always thought of doing films and becoming bigger. My dream is coming true now and I can’t be happier.”
