I like spending time with my family and friends on my birthday.

Friendship is a personal issue, and it should remain that way.

The way 'Baahubali' has connected with people all over India... it has given us recognition all over the country. It's a humbling experience. I'm thankful to the entire team.

When we started work on 'Baahubali,' my sheer aim was to be able to live up to the imagination that Rajamouli sir had in mind. As an actor, my intention was to bring up 'Baahubali' live on screen for the audiences. I never even expected in my wildest of dreams that the film would grow on to become a phenomenon of sorts.

I have my strong faith, respect, and belief in Rajamouli sir. The fact that he believed I could play 'Baahubali' was huge for me.
