Baahubali filmmaker SS Rajamouli has showered praise on the performances of Keerthy Suresh and Dulquer Salmaan in Mahanati after watching a special preview show in Hyderabad yesterday. The Tamil version Nadigaiyar Thilagam is hitting the screens from Friday in Tamil Nadu.
. @KeerthyOfficial’s potrayal of Savitri garu is one of the finest performances I've ever seen. It is not just imitating. She brought the legendry actress back to life. @dulQuer is absolutely fantastic. I am his fan now.
