Sudheer Babu Talks About Mahesh Babu
Sudheer Babu and Mahesh Babu share a deep mutual respect. During the pre-release event of 'Jatadhara', Sudheer became emotional and shared that he is aware most cheers from the public are for Mahesh Babu, and even if one or two are for him, he considers that a reason to keep fighting. "My 20 films, successes and failures alike, are solely the result of my own effort and choices. I have never asked for Mahesh's help, even though he is always ready to assist. This is why I say, the reason I have done 20 films is one person—the one called 'Krishna's son-in-law, Mahesh's brother-in-law, Sudheer Babu.' This film, Jatadhara, is one of my best works," he said.

Meanwhile, Mahesh Babu is working on SS Rajamouli's 'Varanasi', sharing the screen with Priyanka Chopra and Prithviraj Sukumaran.
