Chiranjeevi felt 'insulted' upon reaching Delhi for National Awards

Chiranjeevi once revisited a moment from his past that left him deeply disheartened. Despite being one of India’s most celebrated film stars, he admitted that he felt “insulted” and “humiliated” during a visit to New Delhi in 1989 for the National Awards ceremony. He noted that many bureaucrats seemed to equate Indian cinema exclusively with Hindi films, ignoring the vast contributions from other language industries.
