Pawan Kalyan and books are amigos. He always considers reading books will help improve knowledge and also paves the way for better living through a better understanding of people, society, and situations. Near and dear always say, Pawan quotes various author and writers during his candid talks as well.

Cut to his film shootings, Pawan always indulges in reading a book during shot-gaps and breaks. During the filming of Attarintiki Daredi many have seen him reading “Aadhunika Mahbharatam” book written by Gunturu Seshendra Sharma, whom he funded as well to get hard copies reprinted. At the time of Katamarayudu shoot, he was reading “Fortune At The Bottom Of The Pyramid” written by CK Prahlad. Also, the book “Reality Transfuring” became his favorite which helps as a powerful tool to manage reality. He is an avid repeated reader of books written by (on) Ramana Maharshi and those of English translated versions of Tamil literary works like Thirukkal.

The Janasena president is, however, finding it difficult to carry all these books to all the places he goes. Whether at his farmhouse or when he flies abroad, shuttling these books to and fro has become a tedious job. For that reason, Pawan has decided to buy a better Kindle and then started buying many kindle-editions of modern international best-selling books. A kindle is like an iPad but mostly with black and white display, and helps reading PDFs while the battery backup is for weeks and more than a 1000 books could be stored.

Currently, Pawan Kalyan has owned one, and he’s said to have purchased nearly 100 new books for his walking library. A source revealed that he is currently giving a read of Bertrand Russel’s Philosophy books that talk about western society. “History Of Western Philosophy” is the book he’s hooked to!!
