I AM NOT COMPLETELY NEW TO SUCCESS

Teja Sajja is living his dream as his new film Hanu Man has become a huge success.

He admits that Director Prasanth Verma and he faced a lot of struggle to make the film and it finally paid off.

Teja tells Subhash K Jha, “There is a tremendous response from across the country that has taken us by surprise.”

First of all, I want to congratulate you for this astounding success.

Thank you, Sir, thank you. I feel like I am living in a dream.

I am in the airport now and there are 30-40 people waiting for pictures with me as soon as I finish talking to you.

How do you feel?

Firstly, I am not completely new to success. My earlier film with the same director, Zombie Reddy, was also a success, though nothing like this.

There is a tremendous response from across the country that has taken us by surprise. I am getting congratulatory calls from across industries.

It feels very comforting when stars, who had their releases on the same day as Hanu Man, are calling me.

Sivakarthikeyan Sir saw the film and congratulated me.
