Bollywood biggies, who are flying to Hyderabad to attend South superstar Chiranjeevi’s 60th birthday today, can expect a special treat. For, he has whipped up a special dosa to be served to his guests on the occasion. What’s more, he has even patented it.

Ram Charan, the star’s actor-son, says: “There will be a big counter where the Chiranjeevi dosa will be served. My father has a special recipe for it and it is quite famous. Rajinikanth and many other guests who come at our house ask for it and we have decided to serve it to everyone attending the party.”

Interestingly, Chiranjeevi has briefed the chief chef of the five-star hotel, the venue for his bash, on preparing the dosa. “The chef was called to his residence and trained to make the dosa in a particular way. There will be a huge counter at the party hall where the chef will rustle it up in front of the guests,” informs a source from Hyderabad.

Apart from patenting the dosa, Chiranjeevi is also planning to launch a chain of hotels. “We also want his fans to taste his culinary creation. There are plans to open a chain of hotels across India called The Chiranjeevi Dosa. The price will be moderate so that the masses can afford it,” adds Ram.
