Pawan 'Vengeance' Kalyan is not one who forgives and forgets. If two of his blockbusters - the just released 'Attarintiki Daredi' and the previous one 'Gabbar Singh' - showed anything, it was his contempt for those he disliked from the bottom of his heart.
The big star that he is, Pawan Kalyan, brother of megastar Chiranjeevi, union minister of state for tourism, took at dig at two big actors in the Telugu film industry in both his films.
No, he did not utter dialogues to show how much he loathed them. All that he did was make the audience laugh at them.
In 'Attarintiki Daredi' released on Friday, the actor mouths a dialogue imitating Tollywood's 'Collection king' Mohan Babu. The actor-producer and former MP is known to render his dialogues in a distinct style.
It is easy to make out if someone is imitating Mohan Babu. Not surprisingly, Pawan Kalyan, who plays a rich guy acting as a mere car driver in the film, mouths a lengthy dialogue in Mohan Babu-style. The similarity was not lost on the audience which went delirious.
For the records, all has not been well with the Chiranjeevi family and Mohan Babu. While Mohan Babu is a senior in the industry, Chiranjeevi who came to filmdom later, overtook all his peers and seniors to become the uncrowned king of the Telugu film industry before he moved on to politics.
