Mahesh Babu, is undoubtedly one of the most of talented stars in the South Indian film industry. He is the director’s favourite and most of the filmmakers would love to work with him. Now in a media interaction, when asked about his entry into Bollywood, Mahesh Babu said that Bollywood can’t afford him. The statement became controversial and many got hurt by his dialogue. Later, Mahesh Babu said that “I have always wanted to do Telugu films. And I have always wished for Telugu movies to do well across the country.
