South star Chiranjeevi was honoured with the prestigious Akkineni Nageswara Rao (ANR) National Award in Hyderabad on Monday. The actor was felicitated by Bollywood legend Amitabh Bachchan. The Akkineni International Foundation established the award in 2005 to recognise artists for their outstanding contributions to Indian cinema. This year, the event commemorated the 100th birth anniversary of Telugu cinema legend and actor Nagarjuna's father, Akkineni Nageswara Rao. A video from the event showed Amitabh Bachchan honouring Chiranjeevi with a trophy and a shawl. To take Big B's blessings, a very emotional Chiranjeevi bent before him and touched his feet. After accepting the award, Chiranjeevi posed for a photo with Nagarjuna Akkineni and Amitabh Bachchan.
