In the special promo, Mahesh Babu also spoke about the journey behind getting over 1, 000 heart surgeries done free of cost for needy children.
"Gautham was born six weeks before as a premature baby. When I first held him, he was just as big as my palm. Now, Gautham is almost 6 ft tall. We had the money so we could take care of Gautham but what about those who couldn't afford. I always wanted to do something for children. That's how this thought of working with children was born," said Mahesh. ALSO READ:Mahesh Babu Tests Positive For COVID-19 With Mild Symptoms; Actor Says, 'Can't Wait To Be Back'
