director.He is fondly called 'Power Star' by his fans. His birth name
is Konidala Kalyan. He starred in many top films and became one of the
top celebrities in India, perhaps the most notable of these being the
hugely successful of his five films (Suswagatham, Tholi Prema,
Thammudu, Badri, Khushi). He is the younger brother of popular Telugu
actor, Chiranjeevi and producer Naga Babu.
Super stardom and "Pawan-Mania"
The
move from "Star" to "Power Star" came when pawan kalyan played "Balu"
in the 1998 blockbuster toliprema, the highest critical acclaimed movie
It also received 6 nandi awards. Over the course of the next few years
he would become a household name statewide, synonymous with labels such
as "teenage heart-throb". In 1999 Pawan Kalyan began a shift away to
action and love involved movies and moved to engage himself by starring
in three epic movies: Thammudu, Badri, Khushi. All three films were
very well received by critics. His stardom took such a high because he
is the only actor in the Telugu film fraternity to give four
block-busters in a row. He mainly attracted youth and college students
with his movies in college back-drop and he has most of his following
in the youth and also the most popular and liked actor in the youth.
Hence irrespective of hits and flops his films receive a tremendous
opening collections.

Media
Media
have every reason to misinterpret him. They write a lot about him. He
was completely down after Johnny. What he thought of Johnny and what
got translated on screen was very different. He compensated the
distributors' loss. He have always shared the loss and no one talks
about it. Nevertheless, he is a very content person and he never felt
that he should use media to justify his actions. He always thinks that
movies are the only source of media for him to interact with the
audience and his fans. The fact that he has not celebrated even a
single 'Success Meet' or a function after his movie reaches a landmark
shows his modesty and simplicity. His sheer disinterest in media is the
reason for the bad propagation about him in the media. Also Pawan did
not receive any award for his movies so far as he is not media
friendly. The fact that he did not receive the Best Actor award for
Khushi in 2001, the year in which Telugu film industry was in crisis
shows the non-cooperation of media to him.
