While he made his national debut with 'Major,' Tollywood actor Adivi Sesh has been making waves in the Telugu cinema industry with some intriguing films. The top 25 Telugu movies on IMDB include the 1957 release of Mayabazar at number two and the 1980 release of Sankarabharanam at number fourteen. Another significant entry is Bahubali 2 at number ten. 'C/o Kancharapalem' tops the list with an 8.4 rating. Venkatesh is on the list twice, with 'Nuvvu Naaku Nacchaavu' and 'Drushyam.'
Surprisingly, three of Adivi Sesh's films are among the top 25. The films are 'Kshanam,' which was released in 2016, 'Evaru,' which was released in 2019, and 'Major,' which will be released in 2022, ranking at no. 17, 18, and 22, respectively, with IMDB rating of 7.9.
Speaking on this, Adivi Sesh says, "It is extremely humbling to know that 3 of my films have made it to the coveted most-watched list on a platform as credible as IMDB. This is all the love from the audiences and I am incredibly grateful to them for that. I would also like to thank all my directors, co-stars, and producers for placing their faith in me. We are what the audience makes us, and I am excited about my future projects as well."
In Kshanam, he plays Rishi, a San Francisco-based investment banker who travels to India to assist his ex-girlfriend Shweta in locating her kidnapped child.
In 'Evaru,' he plays Vikram Vasudev, a Sub-inspector tasked with probing the murder of a high-ranking officer who has a rape victim killed. Then he depicts how real-life hero Sandeep Unnikrishnan fought valiantly against terrorists at the Taj Hotel during the 26/11 strikes in 'Major.'
Sesh is now working on a remake of an Oscar-winning film that will release across India.
