Mahesh Babu on frequent holidays abroad

When question about being regularly spotted at the airport and his back-to-back family trips, Mahesh said, “Do you find them interesting or are you jealous? I go on trips regularly and share them on Instagram for everyone. I'm aware of the comments. Whenever there is a break between shooting schedules or when my children have holidays, we go on trips as a family. I also believe that people derive pleasure and happiness from my photos. I don't know and I can't be certain if people would feel jealous. I don't see why others shouldn't appreciate me going on vacations.”

Reactions to Mahesh's video

The clip was shared on Twitter or X by a fan, who wrote, "This one video is slipper shot to those few media sections, who are spreading negative news about Mahesh Babu."

Reacting to it, a person tweeted, "When and how many vacations he goes on is none of your business. People get overly possessive about their favourite stars. Get a real job." Appreciating the actor's response, a fan also wrote, “Mahesh anna's (brother) swag (heart on fire emoji).”
