V.V. Vinayak like a brother to me: Chiranjeevi

Megastar Chiranjeevi, who is working with V.V. Vinayak on his upcoming Telugu actioner "Khaidi No. 150", says the director is like a brother to him and he is floored by his kindness.

Vinayak turned 41 on Sunday. On this occasion, the team of "Khaidi No. 150" released a special tribute video.

In the video, Chiranjeevi said, "He's like a brother to me. I've always been impressed by his helping tendency. It takes more than just heart to help others and this quality of his makes me like him more as a person than as a director."

Known for delivering blockbusters like "Dil", "Tagore", "Adhursa and "Naayak", Vinayak is currently busy wrapping up "Khaidi No. 150", official remake of Tamil blockbuster "Kaththi".

Kajal Aggarwal, who plays the lead in the film, finds her director to be extremely focused.

"I like many things about Vinayak sir. He's so focused and his planning is amazing. He does not waste time on the sets and gets things done at an amazing speed," she said.

"Khaidi No. 150", which is produced by Ram Charan, is slated for release during Sankranti festival next year.
