The moment you see the name Mahesh don’t think it is superstar Mahesh Babu and when he missed the Nandi award. The person in discussion happens to be Mahesh Kathi. He became a famous film critic with his unbiased reviews on Facebook.
He created his own platform in the Tollywood circuit without any backing. Later on, he became a director with the movie Pesarattu. He also acted in movies like Hrudaya Kaleyam and became popular as an actor. He also expresses his opinions explicitly as social activist on certain issues.
Incidentally, Mahesh is one of the writers for the movie Minugurulu which has won the Nandi Award for the best story. However, it is heard that the awards committee gave only the name of director Ayodhya Kumar. Let us wish that when the award is given, even Mahesh’s name also called upon stage to receive it.
