Mahesh Babu is now a matured being --- both as a hero and as a human being.

The young star is the man of the moment with Pokiri breaking all manner of box office records. There are some speculations as to whether Pokiri is the biggest hit, in terms of box office collection, ever in Telugu.

But Mahesh has no time to rest on his laurels. He is busy shooting for Sainikudu in Chennai.

He says the success of Pokiri had made him more responsible and he was working hard to maintain the streak in Sainikudu.

Mahesh also said that he was very happy to have a huge fan base. But a mature and responsible Mahesh also said fans need not involve themselves in associations and clubs to show their love and affection. ‘Watching films is good enough,’ he said with understanding.

Meanwhile, things are also happy on the domestic front. His wife Namratha is on the family way.
