Actor Mahesh Babu's latest film 'Guntur Kaaram' is successfully running in theatres. Mahesh plays the lead in the Trivikram Srinivas directorial. In most of the scenes of the film, the South superstar is seen smoking. Recently, he opened up about his smoking scenes in the film. 

Mahesh Babu, while speaking to Haarika and Hassine Creations, who backed the film, revealed he initially had migraines after smoking beedi for the film. He also revealed he replaced them later with 'ayurvedic beedi''. The actor who doesn't smoke in real life, clarified that he isn't encouraging people to smoke.

He said, “I don't smoke and won't encourage smoking as well. It was an ayurvedic beedi that was made of clove leaves. Initially, they gave me a real beedi, and I got migraine. I went and told Trivikram [Srinivas] and he was thinking about what to do. Then he researched and got me this ayurvedic beedi, which I found nice. It was made of clove leaves and had a mint flavour. There was no tobacco in it.”

For the unversed, 'Guntur Kaaram' is Mahesh Babu and Trivikram Srinivas' third film together. They had earlier collaborated for blockbusters 'Athadu' (2005) and 'Khaleja' (2010).
