I started doing pan-India movies before everyone: Vijayashanthi

Vijayashanthi was a reigning star in the early 1990s, especially. Her career reached a crescendo after movies like 'Pratighatana', 'Neti Bharatham' and 'Karthavyam'. After the last of the three movies, she was paid a fee of Rs 1 Cr. Undoubtedly, Vijayashanthi was the highest-paid female star of her generation in Telugu.

In her latest interview, the actor-turned-politician said that she was the first one to do pan-India movies before all. "My movies were released in all major South Indian languages and also Hindi. Directors and producers used to infuse my films with fight sequences because that's what the audiences wanted from me. People used to ask how many fights there are in my movie," she said.

The 'Sarileru Neekevvaru' actress added that she used to do stunts without a body double. "I broke my limbs and had multiple fractures at different stages of my career," she added.
