Hyderabad (Telangana) [India], September 22 : Veteran Telugu actor Chiranjeevi, fondly called the "Megastar," has made history by being recognised as the 'Most Prolific Film Star/Actor/Dancer' in the Indian film industry by Guinness World Records.
Guinness World Records Adjudicator Richard Stenning who announced the achievement on Saturday, while speaking to ANI shared that it's a "fantastic achievement" for the Megastar.
"Today Guinness World Records have announced the official announcement of Mr Chiranjeevi being the most prolific Indian film star as an actor and dancer. It's a fantastic achievement with 537 songs that he's danced in across 143 films which is the official number that we recognize... So we're specifically looking at the number of films and yes, the evidence took quite a long time to compile as well as review as you can imagine, there's a lot of films there to go through but it was handed over to me in such a nice format, an easy format for me to review and some videos I did get distracted and watched the full length but actually, my only job was to actually look for Mr Chiranjeevi dancing in each one of those videos and pair it up with data to classify that as official release as well," Stennings told ANI.
Earlier in the day, Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy congratulated veteran Telugu superstar Chiranjeevi for his remarkable achievement of entering the Guinness World Records.
Taking to his X (formerly Twitter) account, Revanth Reddy wrote, "It is a matter of pride for Telugu people that popular movie actor Mr. Konidela Chiranjeevi got a place in the Guinness Book of World Records. My congratulations to them on this auspicious occasion."
