Not into acting Maverick director SS Rajamouli was in for a shock when the online media buzzed with news that he would be acting in his next project Baahubali. To top it, a picture of the director sporting handlebar moustache also started circulating on the internet. Eventually, Rajamouli had to end the rumour by clarifying that he was not part of the star cast of his next movie. He also pointed out that the image circulating on the internet was over 3 years old!

Glamour queen The leading stars of Sandalwood have found a new contender for the title of Glamour Queen. Mumbai-based actress Parul Yadav, who is fast climbing the popularity charts, recently won the Glamour Icon of the Year award from a leading TV channel. Expectedly, established actresses seemed to have taken notice of the new challenge in tinsel town. Parul is already making inroads into Sandalwood, with another hit in Bachchan opposite Sudeep. Her next movie is Shivajinagara, opposite Duniya Vijay. Now that’s a dream run, for sure!

As I walk into the prestigious Geetha Arts office, a life-sized poster of Allu Arjun from Iddarammayilatho greets me. As I wait for the stylish star to walk in, the cult hit and my most favourite song Uppenantha Prema (from Aarya 2) plays in my mind and some of his killer moves flash before my eyes. It is a sunny afternoon and I can feel the butterflies in my stomach! Let’s face it, I am an ardent Allu Arjun fan. My thoughts wander and in my mind, I imagine a grand opening sequence for him as he walks into the office with all the style and oomph his onscreen image is famous for. Of course, reality plays out differntly. Allu Arjun walks in dressed in a pair of jeans and a white tee, accentuating his toned physique. A pair of shades cover his mesmerising eyes. Trust me when I say this – Bunny hardly needs a film-style opening sequence to make an impact. In his simple attire, with a charming smile, he looks absolutely stunning as we settle down for this chat.
Tell us about growing up in Chennai. Oh, I grew up like any other middle-class boy in Chennai, which has a charming culture. See in Chennai, how much ever money you have, your upbringing is usually middle-class. So on the outside, I was the typical, grounded kid. At home, it was entirely different, because we used to live with my grandfather. The environment was always super charged with cinema. Fans used to come and go. I still remember, there was this culture of fans Y` ( ( %/ Y/+ Y ` \` '
Rama Rao garu used to stay next to our house and fans used to come to meet NTR garu. They would also come to meet thathagaru (grandfather) on their way back. There were ` )% ( ' `'([ ' ‘ Y X }/ \\
with fans – approximately 300 to 400 people – used to come home and thathagaru used to say hello to them and wave to them from the verandah. In addition, there were also the regular visits by various artistes.
Being exposed to so much adulation, acting must have seemed fascinating for you. Yes, I have always been proud of my grandfather’s achievements. But as a child, I never seriously thought of becoming an actor myself. A year before I signed Gangotri, I did a small dance bit in Chiranjeevi garu’s \` ' [ %' `'\\ + Y `'( )'

I always say that if you have a great pack of abs, no matter what you wear, it shows brilliantly.

parallel cinema. I believe in good cinema which can happen in both, the commercial and parallel realms. Rubbish cinema can exist in both cases too.

With a father like Allu Aravind who has transformed so many actors into stars and superstars, it must be bliss to have his guidance. Do you take his advice or inputs about a project?
Yes, of course! There are a lot of his inputs ( '\\ `[ \` ƒ & ( \\ ' '\)'[ `'*
sure I seek his guidance.
Tell us about your equation with Megastar Chiranjeevi. Simple. People say that I am a great actor, a fabulous dancer and all of that. To be frank, there are many who are as hard-working as I am. There are a lot of talented actors in Hyderabad who often do not get a platform to showcase their craft. This happens for the simple reason that it is not easy to make it as an actor. We got that platform easily because of Chiranjeevi garu. Also, in the current scenario, to pull the audience into theatres and make them spend 3 hours of their time, one needs a brand that the audience can bank on. Chiranjeevi garu gave me that brand to bank on, and that helped me to kickstart my career. I constantly strive to live up to all that ‡+ Y ` ‚ %' (_ / ( ` (

I dance for people who love dancing. I keep trying new things to match their expectations. I worry that people try my dance steps at home because when I do, I do it under expert guidance and I know the technique of the step. When one does it without this knowledge it may actually hurt them.

“I witnessed the heartbreaks when I got married. I myself went through a similar feeling when Aishwarya Rai got married!�
“There was no designation called ‘stylist’ in the industry. There used to be this one person who would do the whole hair, makeup and costumes all at once”
Any crazy fan moment? One incident I remember was when about 15-20 fans had each tattooed my name, pet name or initial. I scolded them and told them that I knew that they all loved me but that they should not to do such things. One compliment that thrilled you? Recently at the audio launch of Iddarammayilatho, Puri Jagannadh said, ‘Everybody knows that Bunny is a fabulous actor, wonderful dancer etc. But there are a hundred other amazing qualities of Arjun that nobody knows. I wish my son grows up to be like him or at least imbibes a few of his qualities.’ That was really very sweet of him; I feel blessed to receive such compliments. One piece of criticism that you got and from who? From my wife. She often says, “Stop over-acting. You overact so much!” I know she says that in jest. But still, she just does not believe that I have such a fan following. The day I impress her as an actor would mean like impressing the entire state of Andhra Pradesh!

You broke the hearts of many girls with your marriage‌ Well, I had to get married at some point of time. It was nothing sudden. It was not like I got married when I was very young.

I ) /+ ( % \` '( )' (Y \ *
a crush and all that, but the very thought that my favourite actress was getting married got to me. I can imagine the feeling that girls had when I got married. I feel humbled to get so much love!
Tell us about your sweet little love story. Actually, to use your words, it is very simple and very sweet. There wasn’t as much drama as the media projected. I wanted to get married. She wanted to get married. My family was looking out for alliances and so was hers. A few common friends of ours suggested to me that since both our families were looking out for our alliances, why not meet up with her and see if things work out. I had known Sneha even earlier. I wanted to give it a shot, and we decided that if we were okay with it, we would tell our families and they could approach each other. By the time we met, understood each other and felt we should get married, it took 2-3 months. Being a crucial and lifelong decision, it obviously took that much time. So just when we were intending to inform our families, the media broke the news and went on to say that we were dating each other for a very long time. Our families happened to learn about our decision through the media. It was a momentary embarrassment but later & [ % ( )' ( % '` \ *( )
before the media broke it out, the story would not have been so dramatic. I must say that everything has changed after our marriage. Sneha does not believe I have such a big fan following (he bursts out into a hearty laugh)! She says the same thing happens with other actors too. Fans like you should tell her. She is the one person who does not believe that I have a fan following!
