Then NTR and CBN, Now it's Revanth Reddy: Murali Mohan at Gaddar Awards

The Gaddar Awards 2025 event was held grandly in Hyderabad on the occasion of Ugadi. Many celebrities, film personalities, and important guests attended the function. Since the awards were given on a festival day, the event created special excitement among fans and the film industry.

During the event, senior actor Murali Mohan made some interesting comments that quickly became a topic of discussion. Speaking on the stage, he recalled how awards were given in the past and compared them with the present situation.

He said, "Earlier, when NTR was the Chief Minister, Nandi Awards were given on Ugadi. Later, Chandrababu Naidu also continued the same tradition." His words reminded everyone about the golden days of Telugu cinema and how artists were honored regularly.

Murali Mohan also spoke about how this tradition stopped after the state was divided. According to him, the gap affected many artists, as their work was not properly recognized during those years.

He then appreciated the current Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy for bringing back this tradition in a new form. He said, "Now, it is very happy to see Revanth Reddy continuing this tradition again through Gaddar Awards." His statement received applause from the audience.

The actor also praised the government for clearing pending awards from previous years. He said this step shows respect towards artists and their hard work. Recognizing talent is very important in any industry, and such awards motivate people to do better.

Murali Mohan expressed hope that this tradition will continue every year on Ugadi. He said that celebrating awards like a festival will encourage both senior and young artists. It will also inspire new talent to enter the film industry with confidence.
