Hyderabad: After Megastar Chiranjeevi congratulated Kalatapasvi K. Vishwanath on being named for film world's top most award in India, his younger brother Power Star Pawan Kalyan visited the eminent director at his house to congratulate him on Wednesday.

Pawan Kalyan and Trivikram Srinivas felicitated the ace director with a shawl.

Speaking to media, Pawan Kalyan said he liked Vishwanath's movies very much. Maybe due to generation gap, Pawan never had an opportunity to act in Vishwanath's direction.

“The award made us all Telugus proud and it is an honor to the south Indians,” he said.
