Chiranjeevi is looking forward to the release of his son Ram Charan Teja's
Bollywood debut Zanjeer and the actor- politician believes that the remake will
help his son cement his position as an
actor.
Teja, 28, is stepping into the shoes of
Amitabh Bachchan with the remake of
1973 film which gave the megastar an
image of the 'Angry Young Man'.
The Telugu superstar, who is also the
Union Minster of Tourism, is attending IIFA
awards to promote the incredible India
campaign in Macau.
"I am happy that Ram has taken my place
in the Telugu Film Industry. He is doing
good work there. He is confident that his
debut Hindi film will be a superhit despite
the delay in its release. As a father, I am
hopeful about my son's film because it was a hit of that time and gave Amitabh
Bachchan the tag of 'angry young man',"
said Chiranjeevi.
The remake, also featuring Priyanka
Chopra and Sanjay Dutt, has been in the
news due to copyright and royalty issues
with the original film's writers - Salim
Khan and Javed Akhtar.
Chiranjeevi said he does not believe in
advising his son on his career.
"I never knew that he was a good actor
until I saw him dancing in my daughter's
wedding. My wife told me that my son
watches all my films and learnt acting and
dance by watching my films. We never
imposed our dreams on our children. Ram is a self made actor and I was
surprised to
see his first Tamil film.", said the actor.
Tamil superstar Dhanush has already made
a successful foray in Bollywood with Raanjhanaa and now Teja's first
Hindi film is ready to release. Chiranjeevi believes
the exchange of actors between both the
industries is a good change.
"It's a good change. Our budget is going
up. To earn money and meet the
expectation of people across India it is
necessary that the films should reach to
every audience," he said.
