He also praised his actors for performing their own stunts. "My wonderful actors NTR and Ram Charan. In the innumerable action shots in the whole film, I can only hardly think of two or three shots where we used body double. Each and every stunt was performed by them. They are wonderful guys. It is a combined effort of the whole team. We put in 320 days to make this film and most of those days were taken by stunts. This recognition means a lot, not just m and my film, but to the whole Indian film industry," he said.
