Power Star Pawan Kalyan, who first gained attention as Megastar Chiranjeevi’s brother, quickly made a name for himself, building a huge fanbase and becoming a major icon in Indian cinema. With his popularity, he entered politics, started the Janasena Party, and was recently elected as the Deputy Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh.

In a recent interview, Pawan Kalyan’s mother, Anjana Devi, revealed his original name. Contrary to popular belief, it is not Kalyan Babu but Shri Kalyan Kumar. This revelation surprised many, and she further mentioned that she doesn’t know how “Pawan” became part of his name.
