Mahesh Babu’s commercial entertainer Sarkaru Vaari Paata has become the fastest Telugu movie to collect Rs 100 crore (worldwide) at the regional box office.

The film surpassed the Rs 100 crore-mark in five days, making it Mahesh’s fourth consecutive film to enter the coveted club. The actor, who has been in the news for claiming that he doesn’t feature in Bollywood films because the industry cannot “afford” him, took to Twitter to express his gratitude. “Overwhelmed by the outpouring of love for Sarkaru Vaari Paata. To all my super fans, a heartfelt thank you for making this film a blockbuster success. Gratitude always,” he shared on the micro-blogging platform.
