Speaking with Pinkvilla, Adivi Sesh shared how Mahesh Babu is always the first one to wish him success for films. He said, “Mahesh sir, I think before the release of each of my movies, he’s the first one to congratulate me on my opening days.”

“He produced Major, and from then on, the bond, the gratitude, the meaningful connection for me is always going to be there.” he added.

When asked why everyone only has nice things to say about Sesh, the Goodachari actor responded, “Drama ke liye time nahi hain (I have no time for drama).”

Adivi continued, “Ek ek picture banane ke liye mujhe 2 saal lagte hain, aur drama ke liye time nahi hain. (It takes me 2 years to make a single film; in this time, I don’t have the space for drama).”

The actor also spoke candidly about his relationship with other South actors, where he said, “I am not really a group party person, but I do share a good bond with others on a one-on-one basis. I’m good friends with Vennela Kishore, Rahul Ravindra, and also Saaho director Sujeeth, who is making OG with Pawan Kalyan right now. We are called the Musketeers.”
