Mahesh Babu is Tollywood Super Star today. Having come from a film background with father Krishna already named as first Super Star of Telugu cinema, obviously we think of having a responsible father’s hand-on influence on son’s movie selection. To continue the Ghattamaneni family legacy successfully, Krishna should have taken many decisions in finalizing stories, scripts and directors for Mahesh Babu Films. But, this is not the case so.
‘I don’t like anybody to involve in my choice of projects. I will alone listen to story and I will alone decide on whether to do it or reject it. I follow this strict principle since the starting stages of my career. I never discussed a story with my father. I judge a story by myself. It’s an ever learning process since my first film. This is a fifteen years journey. I believe of having earned enough experience and knowledge in these fifteen years to anticipate outcome of a script,’ Mahesh Babu informed during a recent interview
Mahesh Babu’s wife Namrata also comes in from same cinema field. But, it’s still a big surprise that Mahesh do not encourage even his better half to participate in professional decision making. For the first time, Namrata is known to have played decisive role in ‘Srimanthudu’ promotions. Well, the film is first on their home production MB Entertainment banner.
