The veteran actor praised the young cricketer’s talent and contribution to Indian cricket. The film’s team also organized a cake-cutting ceremony to mark the special occasion, and the pictures from their meeting quickly went viral on social media.
Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu is being directed by Anil Ravipudi, with Chiranjeevi playing the lead role and Nayanthara starring as the female lead.
