The Rs.3.5 lakhs worth Cannondale Scalpel Carbon 3 bicycle used by Mahesh Babu in the highly successful film Srimanthudu is being sold, with the proceeds given to charity. No details on the cause have been given on the website www.iamsrimanthudu.com, which is collecting donations worth Rs.999. Each donor will have a chance to win the cycle. This is in keeping with the theme of the film, which focused on improving life in a village. According to the website, “Srimanthudu indeed is a representation of the heroes that changed the fate of a village as their contribution to the betterment of the nation. Meanwhile, the movie also inspired many to wish for the better country.” While no details on the specific charity or cause have been mentioned, the website promises to ship an autographed Srimanthudu t-shirt, signed by Mahesh Babu, to each donor. The winner will receive the cycle from Mahesh Babu on the sets of Brahmotsavam and spend a day with him as well.
