By: Tupaki Desk | 30 May 2018 4:02 PM GMT
Naga Chaitanya admits he was scared to essay the role of his grandfather ANR in 'Mahanati'. In fact, He thought of rejecting the offer when Nag Ashwin approached him by saying his Father Nagarjuna isn't okay with it. To his surprise, Akkineni Family asked him to go ahead when he discussed about the offer.
Nag Ashwin took 13 Takes during the test shoot of Chai as ANR. Then, Chaitanya told himself that he should be ready to do 500 takes for such a role. Director felt Chaitu has created magic while performing for the song 'Naa Pata Ni Nota Palakala Chilaka'.
Akkineni Scion revealed an incident during this interview - '15-Years-Ago, I was asked if I watched 'Devadasu' in the classroom. When I said NO, They sent me out of the classroom and asked me to comeback only after watching it. While doing Kathi-samu scene in 'Devadasu', I told myself that I would be happy even if the output is satisfactory. Though my role lasts for only 2 minutes in 'Mahanati', Its a memorable experience I would cherish all my life'.
