TRUTH Bombs by Mohan Babu
Balakrishna played a ‘Bombs’ game with Mohan Babu, where he asked the guest some troubling questions.

Which actor did you hate working with?: Mohan Babu said that he does not want to answer the question as it could hurt the actors.

Which film do you regret doing?: Mohan Babu said that it is Patalam Pandu. He told that his wife Nirmala did not talk to him for ten days because of the bad film.

What is your opinion on Chiranjeevi?: Mohan Babu said that he does not have a bad opinion about Chiranjeevi. Since Chiru married Allu Ramalingaiah’s daughter Surekha, Mohan Babu feels that Chiru belongs to their family. “He is a good actor and dancer,” said Mohan Babu.

Balakrishna asked Mohan Babu about his drinking habit. Mohan Babu shared an incident from his Chennai days where he used to drink Sura with his friend for 25 paise. “With God’s grace, after I earned money, I had the best Whisky,” said Mohan Babu.

MB: Imagine you in a set filled with 100 people. If the director yells at you, what is your reaction?

Balakrishna’s Mansion House
Mohan Babu discussed about Balakrishna’s drinking habit. Everyone knows that Mansion House is Balakrishna’s favorite brand and the same company is presenting this talk show. Balakrishna admitted that everyone knows that he likes Mansion house. He also said that his house is like a Mansion House for him which is currently a landmark in Jubilee Hills.

Lakshmi & Vishnu joins Mohan Babu
Balakrishna made Lakshmi and Vishnu seated in a different room before inviting them to the stage.

During this, Balakrishna asked both Vishnu and Lakshmi about the last lie that they told their father. Balayya also asked about the last time they fought with their father.

Balakrishna as Hero & Mohan Babu as Villain
During the conversation, Balakrishna asked if Vishnu is ready to act as a villain. Vishnu immediately told that he is ready to sign the film as a villain with Balayya as a hero. Mohan Babu also immediately responded saying, “If you play a hero, I am ready to play a villain. Let’s do a film.”

Later, Balakrishna also revealed that he will prepare a father-son subject for Mohan Babu-Vishnu.

Jai Jai Balayya in Hyderabad Pubs
For those who regularly visit pubs and follow the band culture, they know that the performance of the band will be incomplete without singing Balakrishna’s songs. “Jai Balayya” slogans are pretty common every day in almost every pub in Hyderabad. Manchu Lakshmi presented a video of fans chanting the slogans across different pubs in Hyderabad. Balakrishna revealed that he never knew that something like this is happening. Then, Lakshmi promised to take Balakrishna to one of these pubs soon.

Balakrishna’s dance with Lakshmi Manchu
Balakrishna danced to the ‘Danchave Menatha Koothura’ song with Lakshmi, at her request.

Later, Balakrishna asked Mohan Babu a few questions about their children. Mohan Babu revealed that Lakshmi Manchu gets angry frequently, and she is emotional, and she spends more money, and she needs to be pampered and she ignores him the most.

Emotional Moments
Mohan Babu became emotional talking about failures in his career. He also shared his relationship with Sr NTR. “When I approached him with a proposal that I will produce a film with him, he declined my offer saying that I will incur losses. No one in India can do that,” said Mohan Babu about NTR.

Political Conversation
Balakrishna asked why Mohan Babu chose to leave NTR and join a different party. “Because of Chandra Babu, I had to leave NTR. He influenced me badly. Later, my friend Rajinikanth made me realize that I did a mistake. He took me to NTR who was badly disappointed by me for leaving him. I could not take that. I did a mistake,” he said, adding, “Chandra Babu is my relative today. I cannot think or wish bad for him. Whatever happened has happened.”

Mohan Babu also asked why Balakrishna did not take the party power into his hands but left it to Chandrababu. “At that time, we are fighting against Indira Gandhi and Rajiv Gandhi about nepotism in politics. So, I felt I should not do it and encourage family politics. The situations back then also pushed me to take that decision” said Balakrishna.

UNSTOPPABLE Charity
The main purpose of the talk show is that Balayya wants to use the money for charity. He showed the AV of a kid named Ajeej who is struggling for earning money to get his sister treated for cancer and also for his education. Balakrishna invited Ajeej and his sister to the stage. Balayya announced that he is taking care of the complete treatment of Ajeej’s sister at his Basavatarakam Cancer Hospital. Mohan Babu confirmed that he will take care of Ajeej’s education.
