Mumbai: Stylish Star Allu Arjun surprised his first director, Raghavendra Rao Garu, with a special gift on his birthday.
The ‘Pushpa’ actor displayed a photograph of the filmmaker at the entrance of his office, along with the title, “My First Director.”
Not just that, as Raghavendra Rao Garu celebrated his birthday on Friday, AA posted a couple of behind-the-scenes pictures with the filmmaker over the years. “Wishing a very Happy Birthday to my guruji @Ragavendraraoba garu! My first director. The man who launched me into films. Gratitude forever,” he wrote as a birthday wish.
Raghavendra Rao Garu worked with Allu Arjun in his debut film, “Gangotri”, back in 2003. The movie revolves around the challenges of two childhood friends turned lovers.
