In an interview with Bangalore Times, ahead of Chiranjeevi’s death anniversary, Meghana spoke about the special plans she has for the death anniversary and how she wants people to remember him. When asked what is the memory that has stayed with her, she recalled about June 6, 2020, when she was fast asleep while Chiranjeevi was still awake. “At some point during the night, I opened my eyes, only to see that he was just gazing at me and smiling. I asked him what he was thinking and he said ‘nothing’. The look on his face that night will remain with me forever and I think of it every single day,” she said.
On her plans, Meghana said that she is taking their son for the first time since his birth to the farm that has Chiranjeevi’s memorial. She added, “I wanted June 7 to be the first time that he visits the place. We have that lined up for tomorrow.”
She wants people to remember Chiranjeevi for his approach. She said that he didn’t like being pressurised and always followed his heart and did things because he wanted to. Neither he did things to please people and that’s one thing he has taught her. “He liked the idea to live life king size and never lower one’s standards to be in someone’s good books and live each day like you own it!”, Meghana concluded.
