Telugu star Chiranjeevi has completed 29 years in Telugu films. And today, the star celebrated it in style.

One of the guests invited was his close friend and colleague Nagarjuna.

Chiranjeevi's first film was Pranam Khareedu (1978) but his big break came in A Kodandarami Reddy's Khaidi (1983).

Last year, Chiranjeevi was honoured with the Padma Bhushan.

In November, the actor was bestowed with a doctorate by the Andhra University for his services to the Telugu film industry and his social work.
