Chiru says Godfather is necessary for his image

Megastar Chiranjeevi is all geared up for the release of his upcoming film Godfather, which is all set to be released on October 5th, for Dasara.

The film is releasing in various languages, including in Hindi, and as part of his promotions for the film, the actor recently sat with Anupama Chopra, and answered several questions.

Chiru said that he felt it was necessary for him to do Godfather at this point in his career because he thought it was important for his image. He said that he always loves doing commercial films, and that’s what audiences want to see the actor in, but noted that this kind of a film flexes his versatility and acting range.

He said that this was the main reason he decided to do the film, and said that he hopes he did justice to what Mohanlal did in the original film, Lucifer.

Chiru also made several interesting comments about how his dialogue from the film went viral, where he talks about politics. He said that he didn’t expect it to become so viral. When asked about what he learned the most from his political career, Chiru said that he went into politics to serve the people but decided to leave politics the minute he realized he wasn’t able to serve the people that way.
