Powerstar
Pawan
Kalyan’s
Kushi,
a
2001
musical
romantic
drama
is
the
film
that
catapulted
him
to
his
star
image.
The
movie
was
the
Telugu
directorial
debut
of
actor-director
SJ
Suryah.

Crore.
On

occasion

the
makers

film
decided
to
offer
an

experience

and
the
powerstar
by
re-releasing
the
film.
The
filmmaker
SJ
Suryah
announced
that

The
movie
is
the
latest
to
join
the
bandwagon
of
the
re-release
trend
in
the
Telugu
states.
Bhumika
Chawla
was
the
film’s
female
lead
and
the
chemistry
between
the
lead
pair
was
remarkable.
A
couple
of
scenes
from
the
film
are
considered
the
best
to
date
and
are
widely
re-created.
The
movie
brought
fame
and
money
to
not
only
the
producer
but
also
the
star
cast
and
the
director.
The
film’s
writer
and

and
wrote,
“A
