It was almost seven years since Megastar Chiranjeevi had signed out of films after his last venture as a hero, 'Shankardada Zindabad'. Afterwards, with 'Gabbar Singh' and 'Atharintiki Daredi', Power Star Pawan Kalyan is said to be front runner to occupy number one position in tollywood. On the other hand Prince Mahesh's fans claim that their hero is current number one hero of tollywood. According to them Mahesh's looks and awards matter to occupy number one throne. However, many mega fans claim that Mega Power Star Ram Charan is the real number one of tollywood for having an industry hit into his credit and having a superb success percentage.
In this scenario, Megastar Chiranjeevi has announced he would be doing his 150th movie soon. Also, there are reports that Chiranjeevi would do at least two movies before going for general elections, 2019. " Since none of the heroes has replaced Chiranjeevi's position, Chiranjeevi should be treated as a number one hero now. Moreover, Pawan Kalyan and Ram Charan's blockbuster successes of recent times are due to unprecedented fan base of Chiranjeevi's and so the credit must be given to Chiranjeevi. In either ways, Chiranjeevi stands the number one even today and so other heroes like Pawan Kalyan, Mahesh Babu and Ram Charan have to wait for few more days to get number one position," Analysts said.
