How Sr NTR's Advice Helped Chiranjeevi and His Family Sustain

Megastar Chiranjeevi was one of the attendees for the event organized by former MP Yarlagadda Lakshmi Prasad to commemorate NTR’s 28th death anniversary and ANR’s centenary celebrations in Vizag. The actor revealed how Sr NTR advice back in the former's early days in acting helped him sustain his family.

Sr NTR's golden advice for Chiranjeevi  

Speaking at the event, Chiranjeevi said that he had a fascination with cars and wanted to buy his dream vehicles but NTR advised him otherwise and asked him to invest in properties instead. This, he said proved to be a drastic change.  

“I had a fascination with fancy cars in the early days and had my eyes on a Toyota car that had wing-type doors. But NTR Garu advised me not to invest in these aluminum foil vehicles and instead buy lands and acreage. I believed in him that day and brought lands, which are helping me and my family sustain ourselves today. I will never forget his support," he revealed.

Chiranjeevi spoke very highly of ANR as well. “Back in the day, we used to hear that ANR garu had a bit of an inferiority complex after seeing NTR’s rise to the pinnacle point. But he didn’t let this burn him from the inside and instead used the emotion to improve himself. One should learn how to convert weakness to strength by looking at ANR. He is a man that I look up to,” the Godfather actor said.
