I love Cinema - especially Telugu Movie, as I hail from Andhra
Pradesh. I always wanted to learn something useful from movies while enjoying the entertainment factor (I strongly believe that one
day every school will adapt to videos/movies as a medium of instruction / teaching). I wish people should understand what is good and
what is not, what is reality and what is fantasy. So my dear friends, love
movies but only up to an extent, take good and leave bad.

Filmography:
Pawan Kalyan entered tollywood with Akkada Ammayi Ikkada Abbayi..
Though this film did not do well at the box office, Kalyan was noticed for his
expertise in Martial Arts. He did some extraordinary performances in the movie like
running 20 cars over his fingers which was never before and never after.
After Akkada Ammayi Ikkada Abbayi, kalyan took a break and has
given a live performance of

the title Pawan. From then onwards he has been called as Pawan Kalyan.

In his own words:
“Yeh mera jahaan… (Khushi)”: I have patriotism in me. Not just me – everyone has
patriotism, everyone must have patriotism.
"I am a traveling soldier… (Thammudu)": There is a latent talent in every one. I am nothing
extra-ordinary just because I happen to be an actor. Everybody is
extra-ordinary in his own way. One must identify one’s own talent early on –
one is not great merely when he gets recognized by others – and one doesn’t
become a no-body just because his talent is not widely known.
"Love": “I think love is very important part in life.”
"His Film": “It’s a Telugu movie, that’s all.” There is nothing
special about it.
"Pavan Kalyan": Not many really know much about me. So naturally,
everyone thinks about me his own way.
"Pavan Kalyan, The Singer": Singing is nothing new to me. I sang in Thammudu,
Khushi and Johnny. (Incidentally, Pavan is also a folk-singer – he sings folk
songs of Andhra’s eastern region; he is knowledgeable in music – and plays the
violin.)
"Film Direction": I worked in the directorial department for most of
my own films, and song sequences and stunts have mostly been choreographed from
the basic concept given by me, though I had not been mentioning my own name in
the titles – not until after Khushi. It was only with Johnny that I included my
name in the titles. I have the necessary understanding in all departments of
film-making.
"Selection of Films": I never do films with any one in mind – the subject
must be to my own liking. Whether the audiences will like it, is secondary. First
of all, I must like it – else I just won’t do it.
"Selection of Stories": I get to like it only when it has all the emotions
of day-to-day life of the man in the street.
"Those who want to Approach Him": ‘Where there is a will there is a way.’ One can approach
me just the way Karunakaran, Arun Prasad or Puri Jagannadh did. Those who want
to meet me, only me, and that at any cost will get to meet me in any case. They
will reach, shattering a human cordon around me, if necessary – they ought to.
"Big Brother": “talent + hard work = my big brother.” I am great
fan of my big bro. I like to see him in many more films.
"God": I am a believer, but I don’t do idol worship. I see God in
Nature and in Man. I am just a nature lover.
"Hobbies": Collecting antique swords and daggers; raising pups and kitties;
letting my hair down (and literally clean-shaving my pate) completely after
finishing each project.
"What I fear most": Compulsive liars – yet I cannot get angry with them,
just pity.
