Congress MP Shashi Tharoor, who is leading the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Information Technology on its study tour to Hyderabad, on Wednesday ran into leading Tollywood actor Mahesh Babu at a five-star hotel in Hyderabad.
Tharoor, alongwith MP Jaya Galla of TDP ran into Mahesh Babu at the hotel. Jaya Galla is the actor's brother-in-law. He had a chat with Mahesh Babu who was there for the shooting of his upcoming film "Sarkaru Vaari Paata".
"What a delightful personality," tweeted Tharoor after the meeting with the actor.
"Talking to MaheshBabu @urstrulyMahesh shows you why no one in Hyderabad refers to him without the honorific 'Superstar'! He had just finished knocking out the villain in his next production when we had a chat behind the scenes," wrote Tharoor who posted a video of the meeting.
