The director had passed B Tech (civil engineering) with second class in the examination held in July 1985.


"Super thrilled to receive my B tech degree today 37 years after I passed, which I never took in 1985 since I wasn't interested in practicing civil engineering," he tweeted. He thanked the university for the same.

"I told the honourable vice chancellor Prof Raja Shekar garu I don't deserve this honour but he insisted I do," he added.

The 60-year-old made his debut in the Telugu film industry with crime thriller Siva in 1989.
