Check out Guntur Kaaram review by the audience on social media:
Recently, a pre-release event for 'Guntur Kaaram' was held in Guntur, Andhra Pradesh. At the event, Mahesh got emotional. He said, "This year seems different to me as my dad is not here with us. He used to call me and talk about my film's box office collection every time. I'd feel extremely happy hearing that. I would always wait for that phone call. Now, you have to do that for me. From now on, you all are my mother, father, and everything. I need your blessings."
Namrata Shirodkar also shared the video of Mahesh's speech and wrote, "I'm probably the last person to stand up and speak about how loved MB is amongst his fans - super fans!! It's always been the people of our two states and so many all over the world who shower immense love on him from time to time. They have been supportive of him in all his endeavours and push him to work even harder!! But today, after seeing the reception he and his GK team received in our very own hometown, Guntur, I can proudly say that MB, you have grown to become an emotion for your people⦠and this love we as a family will cherish for as long as we live. I also want to add that we always reciprocate our love in more ways than one, and I sincerely hope you receive it as much. I take this opportunity to say thank you to all of you who love him so dearly! I'm filled with gratitude. My heart is full."
