Mahesh Babu, one of the most bankable actors of the Telugu film industry, celebrated his birthday yesterday.

The 'Prince' of Telugu cinema, who celebrated his 37th birthday yesterday, has at least two interesting releases lined up. The first is 'Dookudu', an action thriller directed by Srini Vaitla. The movie has been shot in foreign locales and has Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Abhimanyu Singh playing major roles.

The second one is 'Businessman', co-authored and directed by Puri Jagannadh, who has also announced a Bollywood version with Abhishek Bachchan in the lead. Though his recent films didn`t do well at the box-office, his popularity has not diminished a bit. In fact, he has gained more fans with commercial ads and endorsements.
