Ram Charan, son of superstar Chiranjeevi, recently revealed how his father’s low-key upbringing helped him in life to keep it going. The star, who has already made big in Tollywood, stated it’s for his father that he is able to pay his EMIs.
On a recent interview with Sam Fragoso, Ram recalled, “Growing up, all my dad’s awards and the cinema magazines would stay in the office below our house and by mistake if I was in the office to take some stationery and would enter our house with any of his pictures, no magazines or pictures of fan work was in our house. A famous Indian artist made a painting of his and even that did not enter our house, because he did not want the influence of his work coming into his residence.”
He added, “He thought it was very glamorous, tempting as an industry and he wanted us to be as normal as possible, he did not want us to know that we had a superstar father and to take it for granted that it would all come easy for us. Whatever he did was right as till today, I am able to pay my EMIs and keep it going and I am doing well because of his upbringing and the way he was.”
