VIJAYAWADA: Kollywood stalwart Kamal Haasan on Friday unveiled a life-sized statue of veteran actor Ghattamaneni Krishna in the KDGO Park in Guru Nanak Colony here. After unveiling the statue, he expressed his pleasure and recalled his memories with the veteran actor.
Kamal Haasan was in Vijayawada for the last couple of days as he was shooting for the next schedule of ‘Indian 2’ movie. YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) Vijayawada East constituency incharge Devineni Avinash and deputy mayor Bellam Durga were present during the installation of Ghattamaneni Krishna’s statue.
