This latest accolade comes after a series of major wins for the actor, including the Best Actor Award at the South Indian International Movie Awards (SIIMA) 2025 and the Gaddar Telangana Film Awards, both for his stellar performance in Sukumar’s ‘Pushpa 2: The Rule’. Released in 2024, the blockbuster sequel to Pushpa: The Rise (2021) shattered box office records and featured a powerful ensemble cast including Rashmika Mandanna, Fahadh Faasil, Jagapathi Babu, Sunil, and Rao Ramesh.

Looking ahead, the National Award-winning actor is set to star in an ambitious sci-fi action film directed by Atlee, tentatively titled Project AA22 x A6, alongside Deepika Padukone.
