Telugu actor Pawan Kalyan has finally made his Instagram debut. But, what's more interesting is that the actor hit the mark of 1.1 million followers in an hour of his debut on the photo-sharing and messaging platform on Tuesday.

The actor chose to grace the social media platform on the birth anniversary of the Indian revolutionary Alluri Sitarama Raju, the character which was played by his nephew Ram Charan in 'RRR'.
