Has Ram Charan surpassed his father?

Chiranjeevi built his empire from scratch, fighting off competition to become the Megastar of Tollywood. But his reach was mostly limited to the Telugu states. Now, with hits like 'Rangasthalam', 'RRR', and 'Peddi', Ram Charan has achieved pan-India stardom, leading everyone to say the son has outshone the father.

What did Chiru say about the 'son surpassed father' comments?

So what does Chiranjeevi think about all this? In recent interviews after the success of 'Peddi', he finally opened his heart. 'Everyone is saying Charan has surpassed Chiranjeevi. It's true, and I accept it wholeheartedly. As a father, I am very proud. But as an actor, it's a bit hard to accept,' he said, adding, 'You did very well, Charan. Love you.'

It was painful to see him in that condition.

Chiranjeevi also revealed his anxiety during the 'Peddi' shoot. 'I was happy seeing his hard work, but I couldn't bear it when he got injured—once on his hand, and another time on his eye. When his eye was bleeding, I got scared... But I didn't tell Charan about my pain,' the Megastar shared, adding, 'It reminded me of what my father used to say. I am truly proud of Charan.'
