Hyderabad: Brahmanandam, the most popular comedian in Tollywood film industry and a Guinness World Record holder for appearing in the highest number of films as a comedian, has carved one of the most impactful careers in Indian cinema. With over a thousand films and four decades of unmatched comic timing, he remains the undisputed king of comedy. During the launch of his autobiography Me in English and Hindi at the Foreign Correspondents Club of South Asia, Delhi, Brahmanandam finally addressed a question fans have often asked.

"Even without Bollywood, my performances have connected with audiences across the country," he said.
