The celebrations honoring the legendary Dr. M. Mohan Babu’s half-century in the Indian film industry officially began Sunday with a grand gesture of gratitude. The Padma Shri awardee and veteran actor, who has graced over 600 films, hosted a lavish dinner for the media fraternity and the Movie Artists Association (MAA), setting an atmosphere of warmth and mutual respect.
Mohan Babu’s exceptional hospitality was the highlight of the evening, marking a perfect start to his 50th-anniversary celebrations. Attendees expressed their appreciation for the actor’s heartfelt effort to personally thank and share this monumental milestone with the media community who have covered his illustrious career.
This dinner serves as the prelude to the main event: MB50 – A Pearl White Tribute, scheduled for November 22, 2025. The tribute, being meticulously organized by his son, actor and producer Vishnu Manchu, is billed as an event that will reflect the “elegance, stature, and dignity” synonymous with the legend himself.
The event is highly anticipated and is expected to draw distinguished personalities from across India’s diverse film industries.
