Teja Sajja started his film journey as a child artist and acted in films like Megastar Chiranjeevi in the films Chudalani Undhi and Indra. Today, the young actor delivered a 300-crore grosser with HanuMan, and this phenomenal achievement has left Megastar in awe.

During his interaction with popular film critic Rajeev Masand at SIFF, Chiru spoke highly of Teja Sajja. Rajeev Masand asked Chiranjeevi if there was a film that the actor wished to be part of. Chiranjeevi said that he actually wanted to make a film on Lord Hanuman, but he couldn’t do it for a few reasons.

Megastar Chiranjeevi said, “I wanted to do a film on Hanuman. But the little boy sitting over there wearing a jacket (Teja Sajja) did it, and it gave me immense satisfaction. Teja acted with me during his childhood, and he started liking me and drawing inspiration from my films. Now, the entire nation is applauding him. I treat him as my family, and he has been a part of my journey. I am highly elated that Teja Sajja has fulfilled my wish. Teja has no film background and came all the way here through his sheer hard work.”
