Mahesh Babu on competition

Superstar Mahesh Babu said that he is not interested in number games. 

When asked of he would now occupy the number one position in Tollywood, a place that has been vacant after megastar Chiranjeevi jumped into politics.

"I am not interested in replacing anyone`s position. I always try to better myself as an actor than thinking about these petty things. I correct my short comings with each movie and work hard to raise the bar. That is important for any actor or star," he said to a news channel. 

He also defended the usage of filthy words in his recently released Businessman. "We never claimed that the movie is a family entertainer. It is a gangster movie and that is the way a gangster vents out his anger. I went with the character," he said. 

Mahesh Babu also said he`s extremely happy with the way the film is doing business at box-office. "It makes me feel extremely happy when I listen to people saying that they are not able to get tickets even after five days of the release."
