Chiranjeevi Konidela

, who’s usually the one at the end of adoration, had a fan-boy moment himself when he couldn’t help but fawn over his granddaughter

Samhita

, daughter of

Sushmita Konidela

.

The little one turned into a mini

Rudhramadevi

, right on time for the film’s fifth anniversary too. Sharing a

video

of her reciting some hard lines and dressed up in a saree and other finery, Chiru wrote, “చిన్నారుల అభిరుచిని తల్లి తండ్రులు ప్రోత్సహిస్తే, అది వారిలో ఉత్సాహాన్ని నింపుతుంది.” (sic) (It’s a great feeling for children when their parents encourage their talent.) He also starts off the video with a note that reads, “It is such a delight to see kids so young take to their passion. And an absolute joy appreciating them display that passion.” (sic) The video ends with the proud grandfather giving her a flying kiss, calling the performance ‘beautiful’. Chiranjeevi also shared a picture of a young Sushmita also dressed up as the warrior queen.


Not just Chiru, the rest of the Mega family too couldn’t help but appreciate her performance. Ram Charan commented, “wow!!” (sic) while Kalyaan Dhev wrote, “Wowwwwwww Samhita!! Way to go girl.” (sic) As the film’s fifth anniversary also approached on Friday, director Gunasekhar’s team appreciated Chiru sharing the video and thanked him for providing a
