Chiranjeevi floored by his granddaughter's performance
Chiranjeevi Konidela seems mighty impressed by his granddaughter's acting skills. He posted a video of the young Samhita dressed up as Rudhramadevi from the movie in an ivory saree and matching blouse. She also had a gold necklace and maangtika as accessories.
Chiranjeevi's granddaughter recited a poignant dialogue of the character from the movie Rudhramadevi. The video started with the lines "It’s a great feeling for children when their parents encourage their talent". It then showed Samhita reciting the dialogue with full fervour and also using a fake sword for adding more impact to the dialogue. It ended with Chiranjeevi showing appreciation for his grandaughter's performance calling it "beautiful" and also sending a flying kiss.
This comes after Rudhramadevi is celebrating five years since its release. The movie starred Anushka Shetty in the titular role along with Allu Arjun, Rana Daggubati, Krishnam Raju, Prakash Raj and Hamsa Nandini among others. The movie is directed by Gunasekhar and recounts the reign of queen Rudhrama Devi in South India during the 13th century.
