Akkineni Nagarjuna didn't confine himself as an actor and Tollywood star hero. He succeeded as a producer.. businessman. He is the first Telugu star hero to host a TV show and his 'Meelo Evaru Koteeswarudu' was successful. He has received appreciation from the small screen audience by repeating the magic of Amitabh Bachchan who hosted for 'Kaun Banega Crorepati', the original version of MEK.
Chiranjeevi turned host for the last season of MEK later. TV channels started approaching star heroes for TV shows after the success of MEK. Star Maa has roped in Young Tiger NTR for hosting Bigg Boss reality show in Telugu. Another Tollywood hero Rana Daggubati also started hosting No.1 Yaari. Rana and NTR tasted super success as hosts..
While speaking on this trend, Nagarjuna commented that "TV is the best medium to reach all sections of audience. That was the main reason for me behind doing MEK. I liked the way NTR is hosting Bigg Boss programme. How NTR is appearing in Bigg Boss show.. he is the same in real life as well. We can see his real life character on the small screen."
Usually, audiece will not know how celebrities will behave in real life. There are certain limitations for them when they attend public functions and when they give interviews. This new generation TV programmes are showing the unknown aspect of celebrities to the audience. We have to wait and see how many stars will take up hosting on the small screen.
