Dulquer Salmaan on the genuine connection he shares with the audience

"I have been very fortunate to get characters that have left a mark in the minds of the audience. The people connect to an actor through the roles and films he has done. When I was offered Mahanati, I wasn't a big star in Telugu. But I have always given my all when an opportunity has been given to me. As a person, I cannot be fake. I have always been true to myself. So, I think that the audience connects with me and they feel that they know me," Dulquer told TV9 Entertainment.
