Megastar Chiranjeevi has been selected as the recipient of the prestigious NTR National Film Award for 2025, announced by the Government of Telangana as part of the newly instituted Gaddar Film Awards. The honour recognises Chiranjeevi’s extraordinary contribution to Indian cinema and his decades-long influence on the Telugu film industry.
The NTR National Award carries immense prestige as it is named after legendary actor and former Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. T. Rama Rao. The award celebrates film personalities whose work has significantly elevated the stature of Indian cinema both nationally and globally.
Over the years, Chiranjeevi has redefined mainstream Telugu cinema with his electrifying screen presence, unmatched dance moves, and powerful performances. His mass appeal and versatility helped shape the commercial cinema landscape, inspiring generations of actors and filmmakers while earning him a massive fan base across the country.
This recognition comes during a remarkable phase in the Megastar’s career. In 2024, he was honoured with the prestigious Padma Vibhushan, one of India’s highest civilian awards, and was also recognised by Guinness World Records for his outstanding achievements as a performer.
From humble beginnings to becoming one of the most celebrated icons in Indian film history, Chiranjeevi’s journey remains a powerful source of inspiration for aspiring artists and film enthusiasts.
On the professional front, Chiranjeevi recently scored a regional industry hit with Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu. He is currently gearing up for an exciting new project with director K. S. Ravindra (Bobby). Meanwhile, fans are eagerly awaiting the release of his ambitious socio-fantasy entertainer Vishwambhara, which is expected to showcase the Megastar in a never-seen-before avatar.
