Acharya: Ram Charan was ‘baffled’, cried after father Chiranjeevi called working with him ‘a blessing’

The biggest reason for fans eagerly waiting for Koratala Siva’s Acharya is because it stars father-son duo of Chiranjeevi and Ram Charan. The RRR star has now opened up about an incident where he broke down after his father hugged him. 

Talking to IANS, Ram Charan said how he cherished the opportunity to work with his father and how it got emotional at one point. The actor said that he and his father used to have dinner together and then get up to start working the next day. 

He added that he knew he had to cherish these moments before the movie wrapped up, but he did not know how to express his feelings.

After a few days of working together, Chiranjeevi reportedly opened up to Charan and said, "We will never be able to relive these moments, Charan. What a blessing it is to be on the same journey!! I intend to make the most of this situation."

Ram Charan revealed that after this, he was baffled and ended up crying as he hugged his father. 

Written and directed by Koratala Siva, Acharya also stars Pooja Hegde, Kajal Aggarwal, Sonu Sood, Jisshu Sengupta, Saurav Lokesh, Kishore, Posani Krishna Murali, Tanikella Bharani, Ajay and Sangeetha Krish in supporting roles.

The makers released a song titled Bhale Bhale Banjara from the movie ear lier this month. The lyrical video saw the father and son duo match each other with some peppy dance moves. The music for the movie is composed by ace music director Mani Sharma. 

Backed by Niranjan Reddy and Anvesh Reddy under the banner of Matinee Entertainment in collaboration with Konidela Productions, Acharya is slated to hit theatres on April 29.
