Pawan Kalyan filmography explained
Pawan Kalyan is an Indian actor, filmmaker, action choreographer, martial artist, politician, and philanthropist who works in Telugu cinema. He is currently serving as the 10th deputy chief minister of Andhra Pradesh since June 2024.
Pawan Kalyan made his acting debut in the 1996 film Akkada Ammayi Ikkada Abbayi. His next four films were all box-office successes Gokulamlo Seeta (1997), Suswagatham (1998), Tholi Prema (1998), and Thammudu (1999).[1] His subsequent films Puri Jagannadh's Badri (2000) and S. J. Suryah's Kushi (2001) were major box office successes.[2] [3]
Kalyan made his directorial debut with Johnny (2003), which was a box office failure.[4] He followed this with a string of underperforming films: Gudumba Shankar (2004),[5] Balu (2005),[6] Bangaram (2006),[7] and Annavaram (2006).[8] After a gap, the film Jalsa (2008) directed by Trivikram Srinivas became a box office success.[9] He collaborated with Suryah again for Puli (2010), which was a box office debacle.[10] Teen Maar (2010) and Panjaa (2011) released to mixed reviews.[11] [12]
The film Gabbar Singh (2012) released to positive reviews and was a blockbuster at the box office, marking his comeback after three back-to -back failures.[13] Kalyan's second film with Puri Jagannadh was Cameraman Gangatho Rambabu (2012), which released to above average reviews.[14] Trivikram Srinivas's Attarintiki Daredi (2013) became the highest grossing Telugu film of all time surpassing Magadheera (2009).[15]
Gopala Gopala (2015) co-starring Venkatesh was a success while Sardaar Gabbar Singh,[16] Katamarayudu,[17] and Agnyaathavaasi received negative reviews.[18] [19] Vakeel Saab (2021), the masala-laced adaptation of the courtroom drama Pink (2016), received positive reviews.[20] His next film, Bheemla Nayak (2022), was successful and ended up becoming the fourth highest-grossing Telugu film of 2022.
