Manchu Manoj, realising he had inadvertently leaked Silambarasan TR’s private mobile number at the pre-release event of ‘Bhairavam’; pictures of the two actors
What is Silambarasan TR’s mobile number?
Thousands of fans of the Tamil star, many of whom had gathered to cheer him at the recently held audio launch of Thug Life, would yearn to get this information. The cat is out of the bag now, due to a ‘blunder’ made recently by Telugu star Manchu Manoj.
The action unfolded at the pre-release event of the upcoming Telugu movie, Bhairavam, on Sunday (May 25).

At one point, when the anchor of the event tasked Manoj to call someone he’s good friends with, the star made a surprising call to his long-time friend Simbu. “Machan, can you hear all the love from Hyderabad?” asked Manoj, requesting the star to say hello to his fans from the Telugu states.
However, inadvertently, Manoj’s mobile screen tilted towards the many prying cameras at the event, which captured Silambarasan’s private mobile number.
Realising his blunder, Manoj told Simbu, “Machan, sorry your number was slightly visible to the cameras; I will try to cut it out and I will also get you a new SIM card,” to which a concerned Simbu exclaimed, “Achacho!”
Then Manoj continued talking to his friend and wished him the best for his upcoming film, Thug Life. “You look fantastic with Kamal sir. I am so jealous. I am so happy to see two brilliant actors together on one screen.” Simbu too expressed his wishes to Manoj and the team of Bhairavam. “I saw the trailer; you guys have done a great job and I wish the team all the best,” said the actor.

Later, when Manoj jokingly asked Silambarasan to send him ₹10,000 via UPI, the latter replied, “I want to tell one thing about Manoj. He is like a small kid; if you show him love, he will show you too much love, but if you show him anger, then it is a problem. So it is better to show love and be on the right side. He’s such a lovely person and I am very proud and happy to have such a friend,” added Simbu.
Meanwhile, a source close to Simbu has revealed to us that the actor’s team promptly changed his mobile number last evening.
Bhairavam, the Telugu remake of the hit Tamil film Garudan, stars Manoj alongside Bellamkonda Srinivas, Nara Rohith and Aditi Shankar. The film, written and directed by Vijay Kanakamedala, is all set to release in theatres on May 30. The film is presented by Dr Jayantilal Gada of Pen Studios and produced by KK Radhamohan’s Sri Sathya Sai Arts.
Meanwhile, Silambarasan’s Thug Life stars the actor opposite veteran actor Kamal Haasan. Directed by Mani Ratnam, the film also features Trisha, Abhirami, Joju George, Nasser, and Ashok Selvan among others. Produced by Raaj Kamal Films International and Madras Talkies, the film is set to release in theatres on June 5.
