Mohan Babu gave strong warning to Nagarjuna and Balakrishna

Mohan Babu, famously known as the "Collection King," dominated the industry for several years. He transitioned from playing villains to becoming a hero, only to return to villainous roles and back to being a hero once more. His versatility continues to shine, as he consistently impresses audiences with his dynamic performances. While he no longer takes on solo hero roles, Mohan Babu has carved a niche by delivering powerful performances in key roles in major films. He is currently starring in the pan-Indian film *Kannappa*, where his son, Manchu Vishnu, plays the lead role. Notably, Mohan Babu himself is producing this film, making it a personal and professional milestone.

Within the industry, Mohan Babu commands great respect. He is known for speaking his mind fearlessly, unafraid to call out what he dislikes. When necessary, he delivers blunt warnings, reinforcing his reputation for being outspoken. This candid nature has earned him a formidable image—few dare to cross him, and many are cautious around him. Mohan Babu rarely attends large film events, preferring to stay focused on his own work. If a controversy arises around him, he is often the first to respond.

A memorable moment involving Mohan Babu occurred when King Nagarjuna made a surprising comment. During an event attended by the likes of Chiranjeevi, Balakrishna, Krishnam Raju, Venkatesh, Rajendra Prasad, and other industry stalwarts, Nagarjuna, in a playful manner, called Mohan Babu a "pickpocket" on stage. This comment left the audience stunned. Mohan Babu, quick to react, playfully warned Nagarjuna, urging him to be cautious even when addressing someone as senior as "Annayya" (referring to Chiranjeevi).

This amusing exchange took place at an event organized by popular politician and producer T. Subbarami Reddy in Vizag, in collaboration with TV9. The event was attended by several luminaries, including Chiranjeevi, Mohan Babu, Nagarjuna, Balakrishna, and Krishnam Raju. Towards the end, when the microphone was handed to Nagarjuna, he made a light-hearted comment about Mohan Babu "stealing" all the points he had prepared for his speech. Referring to Mohan Babu as a "pickpocket," Nagarjuna apologized immediately after the jest. In response, Mohan Babu humorously replied that he always lets Nagarjuna and Balakrishna off the hook because of the blessings he received from industry legends like N. T. Rama Rao and Akkineni Nageswara Rao.

The playful banter between Mohan Babu and Nagarjuna had the audience in stitches. It added a delightful energy to the event, with fans cheering loudly for the two veterans. Despite their teasing, it’s evident that Mohan Babu and Nagarjuna share a warm camaraderie. Having worked together in several films, including 'Annamayya', 'Vijay', 'Agni', 'Adhipati', 'Jagadguru Adi Shankara', 'Prema Yuddam', 'Murali Krishnadu', and 'Chinababu', their bond is rooted in years of collaboration and mutual respect.

Currently, Nagarjuna is working on his upcoming films *Kubera* and *Coolie*, while Mohan Babu continues to explore impactful roles. The friendship and professional rapport between these two stalwarts is a testament to their enduring presence in the industry.
