Megastar Chiranjeevi recently hosted the new British Deputy High Commissioner Gareth Wynn Owen on a scrumptious dinner at his residence, filled with local delicacies. Chiranjeevi invited him to discuss the collaboration between the UK and the thriving Telugu film industry. Chiranjeevi took to Twitter to announce the happy news and also informed his fans that he didn’t miss out on serving some mouth-watering avakaya to the Deputy High Commissioner. Avakaya is a deliciously sweet and sour type of mango pickle. The actor also revealed that the duo “exchanged courteous notes on many topics of UK, India and Telugu states over dinner”, at his place.
