It is known that Akkineni Nagarajuna, who made the ‘Meelo Evaru Koteeswarudu’ game show touch new heights of TRP Ratings for the first 3 seasons, has been replaced by megastar Chiranjeevi for the 4th season. During a latest media interaction, Nag himself has revealed why he had opted out of such a successful show.
The Akkineni senior said that his main intention was to break the monotony, which according to him was bound to come after watching the same host for as many as 3 seasons.
‘People could guess my reaction even before I let it out as they have seen me in 180 episodes continuously. It could kill the enthusiasm of watching the show so on the last day of MEK3 shoot, I announced my decision of quitting or taking a break for 1-2 seasons at least,’ Nag added.
The ‘Om Namo Venkatesaya’ actor said that shooting for MEK was a strenuous process. ‘I had to keep my concentration all the time as I have to respond to their answers. If I lose my concentration for even a second, I couldn’t respond to the guests properly. I enjoyed the interaction with people but it was quite tiring to be alert from morning 9 to evening 6-7, every day,’ said Nag probably revealing the true reason to step aside.
