Actress Avika Gor is on cloud nine as superstar Akkineni Nagarjuna attended the launch event of her debut production, 'Popcorn'. She said she is fond of his movies and his presence matters a lot to her. The 'Balika Vadhu' fame shared: "His presence was the biggest gift that he could have ever given to me. It was this one line that I told him that 'I want you to be there and it's my first production' and even before I could talk about the movie or give more details he just said 'okay I will be there'. I think that will stay with me forever."

"I honestly cannot choose one. There are so many of his films that I love. He is such a beautiful actor. The recent one that people have been talking about is 'Brahmastra' and I really wish and hope that we see more of him in the upcoming version and sequels of 'Brahmastra'."
