Chiranjeevi made his wife Surekha Konidela feel extra special on her birthday by sharing a series of rare and beautiful pictures from different phases of their life together. From an old picture of them feeding each other with love to a recent selfie with a warm hug, the pictures explored their love for each other. The note by the actor along with the pictures was emotional and instantly connected with his fans and the film industry adding a unique touch to the anniversary celebration.
Chiranjeevi’s gratitude note
Beginning his note with, “Happy Birthday to dearest Surekha. From the day we got married on February 20, 1980, you have been my greatest strength. As we celebrate your birthday today and our wedding anniversary in advance, my heart is filled with gratitude,” Chiranjeevi acknowledged her unwavering presence in his life. He went on to write, “You are the nucleus of our family, the one who binds us all with love. You embraced my family members as your own, stood by them in every moment, and became a true daughter to my parents, just as they embraced you with equal affection.” His words highlighted the emotional foundation she has been for the entire Konidela family.
Megastar credits wife for his career journey
In the most moving part of the message, the actor gave full credit for his journey to his life partner. “If anyone asks me the secret of my success, it is not my talent or hard work, ‘It is you’. Because you carried every responsibility with quiet strength, I could focus completely on my profession. In every crisis, in every celebration, you are the one who holds us together. You are not just my wife, you are my strength, my support system, my peace.” The note ended on an equally emotional line: “On your birthday today, and as we approach our wedding anniversary, I want to say this from my heart, I am what I am because of you. With all my love, always and forever.”
