However, a lesser-known fact is that Trisha once confessed to feeling a little bad while working with the actor.
Throwback to the time, when during an interview with IndiaGlitz Telugu, the actress shared her connection with Mahesh Babu during her early days. She revealed that she had actually known him even before they stepped into the limelight as actors. She shared that they used to go to the same college in Chennai.
"When he was a college student in Chennai, we had common friends. That's how we first met. It was a simple 'hi-bye' kind of friendship then.
None of us knew we'd end up working in films together", she said.
Their casual acquaintance eventually turned into a professional relationship when they teamed up on film sets. But it was during this time that Trisha realised just how committed and hardworking Mahesh Babu truly was.
"Mahesh is a hard worker," she shared. "He would be on the set from early morning until 10 at night. I genuinely felt bad after watching his dedication." She also mentioned that she never saw the 'Guntur Kaaram' actor go back to his caravan.
Even if he's not part of the scene which is being done by other actors he would sit by the monitor, watch and learn.
On the current work front, Trisha's latest film 'Thug Life' starring
has been performing poorly at the box office.

On the other hand, Mahesh Babu is currently working with ace director SS Rajamouli on the tentatively named, 'SSMB29'. The movie is currently in production and also features international star Priyanka Chopra and Malayalam star Prithviraj Sukumaran. Trisha was also seen in Ajith Kumar's recent hit film 'Good Bad Ugly'.
Mahesh Babu who is usually seen in clean-cut and urbane looks, now sports a rugged appearance with long, curly hair and a thick beard, a look that is quite different from his usual style. He has undergone intensive physical training for a bulky and muscular look. The movie is touted to take inspiration from Hollywood's 'Indiana Jones' film series.

I don't rank as high as other heroes: Pawan Kalyan makes startling claim
Ahead of the long-delayed release of 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu Part 1', actor and Andhra Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Pawan Kalyan opened up about the emotional journey behind the film and the many challenges it faced. Despite being one of Telugu cinema's most influential stars, the actor-politician humbly remarked that he doesn't see himself on the same commercial scale as some of his at a press meet in Hyderabad on Monday, Pawan said, 'Politically, I may have a recognisable name and a presence across the country. But when it comes to cinema, I know I don't rank as high as other heroes. That brings its own set of challenges. My films may not do the kind of business theirs do or bring in the same returns. My primary focus has always been politics. I never was competitive with films. My focus was always on social service. It is everyone's industry.'Here's the video: He admitted that he rarely attends promotional events, not out of arrogance, but because he finds it difficult to market his own work. 'This press meet is for producer AM Rathnam. I'm here because of him,' he said, crediting the veteran producer's unwavering faith in keeping the film alive through its numerous delays and setbacks.'Hari Hara Veera Mallu' has had a troubled production history, with nearly a dozen postponements and changes behind the scenes. Initially helmed by director Krish Jagarlamudi, the film was conceived as a high-concept period drama. However, due to various circumstances, Krish stepped away, and the directorial reins were handed over to Jyothi Krisna, son of AM Krish's early involvement, Pawan said, 'Krish brought this as a high-concept project. I thank him for laying the foundation.' He also spoke candidly about the creative and financial difficulties that plagued the film. 'This project wasn't smooth. We had to face many challenges,' he said. Produced by A Dayakar Rao under Mega Surya Production and presented by AM Rathnam, the period action drama stars Pawan Kalyan, Nidhhi Agerwal, Bobby Deol, Sathyaraj, Nargis Fakhri, and others. The film's music is composed by MM Keeravani, with cinematography by Gnana Sekhar and Manoj Paramahamsa. It is slated for release on July 24.- Ends
