When producer Aswini got on stage, Amitabh spoke about him and said, “He’s the owner of Vyjayanthi Films along with his two daughters (Swapna, Priyanka) and I have never met a more simple, humble human being than Aswini. Every time on set, he’s the first person to be there, he’s at the airport to receive you, and he’ll ensure you’re protected, no one thinks like this.” Then Amitabh went on to say, “With all due respect,” before touching Aswini’s feet, who also touched his feet back in return.

Ram Gopal Varma shared a screengrab of the moment Amitabh touched Aswini’s feet on X (formerly Twitter), writing, “Here is UPPER LIMIT of achievement for ASHWINI DUTT by AMITABH BACHCHAN doing this. I doubt from N T Rama Rao onwards till the latest young heroes anybody would have done this and neither did I ever saw BIG B do this to any other PRODUCER in his entire career. KUDOS DUTT GAARU.”

Who is Aswini Dutt?

Aswini owns one of the biggest production houses in Tollywood – Vyjayanthi Movies – which was established in 1974. He has three daughters – Swapna, Priyanka, Sravanthi – with the former two also working in production with him under Swapna Cinema. Priyanka is married to Nag Ashwin, who directed Kalki 2898 AD.

In his career, Aswini backed blockbusters starring NTR, ANR, Krishna, Sobhan Babu, Krishnam Raju, Chiranjeevi, Venkatesh, Balakrishna, Nagarjuna, Mahesh Babu, Allu Arjun, Jr. NTR, and Ram Charan. After hitting a rough patch with the 2011 film Sakthi, Aswini took a hiatus before returning with the hit 2017 film Mahanati.

The 1990 film Jagadeka Veerudu Athiloka Sundari, starring Chiranjeevi and Sridevi, is one of the best films ever made by Vyjayanthi Movies. It’s also a personal favorite for Ashwini.
