On Wednesday, actor Chiranjeevi shared photos on his X account (previously known as Twitter) featuring himself and his wife, Surekha Konidela, in celebration of her birthday. He also wrote a heartfelt message, thanking her for her unwavering support for him and their family throughout the years.
What Chiranjeevi mentioned
Chiranjeevi posted a series of photos with Surekha, spanning several years. In one older photo, they are seen feeding each other with a spoon. Another image shows them sitting together at an event. The most recent picture captures them embracing. In the caption, he wrote, “Happy Birthday to my beloved Surekha. Since our marriage on February 20, 1980, you have been my biggest support. As we celebrate your birthday today and our upcoming wedding anniversary, I am filled with gratitude.”
He remarked, "You are the heart of our family, the one who unites us all with love. You welcomed my family as your own, supported them at every turn, and became a genuine daughter to my parents, just as they welcomed you with the same warmth."
I am who I am because of you.
The message stated, "If someone inquires about the key to my success, it's not my talent or diligence, it's you. Your quiet strength in handling every responsibility allowed me to concentrate fully on my career. In every challenge and every joyous moment, you are the one who keeps us united. You are more than just my wife; you are my strength, my support, my tranquility."
He finished the message with, "On your birthday today, and as our wedding anniversary nears, I want to express from the depths of my heart - I am who I am because of you. With all my love, now and always."
Surekha is the daughter of Telugu comedian Allu Ramalingaiah and the sibling of producer Allu Aravind. She married Chiranjeevi on February 20, 1980. The couple has a son, Ram Charan, who is also an actor, along with two daughters, Sushmita and Sreeja.
Chiranjeevi and Surekha have recently become grandparents once more, as Ram Charan and Upasana Konidela welcomed their twins, a son and a daughter, on January 31. On Friday, Chiranjeevi shared the first look of the newborns on social media, unveiling their names as Shiva Ram Konidela and Anveera Devi Konidela.
