Personal life? I'd like to keep it private.

I don't want to smoke on screen, as I will be sending a wrong message to my fans, and I appeal to my costars too, to avoid smoking scenes if possible.

Gautham was a premature baby. I remember when doctors said that his health condition was critical, I was tense. I could afford the treatment, but a lot of commoners can't. I believe more children's lives can be saved if we work towards it.

I'm not a party person.

I am very close to my brother Ramesh Babu. When my father was away for shootings, my brother would take care of me, and I am very close to him, and yes, Dad's always special.

Emotions should be real; one shouldn't come across as acting.

I am neither going to Bollywood nor joining politics.

If you have a happy home, everything is sorted, I guess.
Mahesh Babu

I'm very thankful to all my fans for their constant love and support. I am what I am because of their unconditional love.

When I started as a child actor, my father didn't tell me anything.
Mahesh Babu

I'm extremely particular how my look should be in a film.
Mahesh Babu
-
My father is an amazing person. While he was a huge star, he never carried his stardom home and always remained simple and just our father at home. I have four siblings, and we were all very grounded. We lived a very simple life: would go in an auto rickshaw to school, played with normal boys.
Mahesh Babu
-
To be honest, I have never thought about getting into direction.
Mahesh Babu

Once I finish shooting, I head straight home and spend time with my family. It's only when I have to promote my films that I make public appearances.
Mahesh Babu
-
Telugu audiences love cinema. They won't let a good film down, and they've proved this with the way they accepted 'Srimanthudu.'
Mahesh Babu

The only thing I have learnt over the years is that if you enjoy your work and put in the best efforts, it will show. If you follow this process, things work out. But if you go chasing a formula, success will elude you.

I love holidaying with the kids after working hard, it is amazing.

It's healthy to have two or three weeks' gap between big releases.
Mahesh Babu

When my film flops, I believe it is my mistake. There have been times when I didn't come out of my house because my films didn't do well. I lock myself in for months. I don't talk to people. I feel bad for producer, director, for those who lost money. It's never about myself or my career alone.
Mahesh Babu
-
My father is an amazing person.
Mahesh Babu
-
I'm under pressure with all my films. And the reason we are always under pressure is because it's only in our profession that months and even years of hard work is judged by the first show on Friday.
Mahesh Babu
-
A lot of things and a lot of money is involved in a movie. It is very upsetting when a movie doesn't fare well at the box-office.
Mahesh Babu
-
First and foremost, I look for a great script. Then, the team that I am working with. Only then, we will be able to come up with a good film.
Mahesh Babu

Yes, 'Aagadu' was a failure. I was dejected for a couple of months, since there was a lot at stake.
