Is Chiranjeevi Afraid of Comming to Politics
Megastar Chiranjeevi, undoubtedly numero uno in Telugu cinema is in news for
treading late Mr NTR's path to politics. Is he really interested. He has
never spoken about his new party, only his over-enthusiastic brothers and
fans are spreading the message.
If Chiru (as Chiranjeevi is fondly called) is really interested why this much
delay? Initially the party was supposed to be started on Diwali, then New
Year, Sankranti followed and Ugadi also went.. there were rumors of him
leading the BSP; but Mayawati blasted 'cinestars in politics' and closed that
lid.
Is he really afraid of losing elections? Is he afraid of Income Tax raids? Is he afraid of becoming a caste-actor (he belongs to Kappus a dominant caste in Coastal Andhra) ? Is he afraid of losing fans from Telangana? Is he afraid of the money losses ?
Not all cine stars have succeeded in politics .. Amitabh Bachhan, Sivaji Ganesan were great losers.
According to a close confidant of Chiru told that 'Annaya is looking at all options; whether he will start party or not he will be there to serve the people'
Hope all ends well for Chiru.

Chiranjeevi - BJP Alliance
Will Chiranjeevi move close to BJP?
Bharatiya Janata Party ( BJP ) without any charsimatic leader in the Andhra Pradesh, would be jubiliant to welcome Chiranjeevi to its fold. But will Chiru join? Chiru and BJP are natural allies with Chiru strong in Andhra and BJP in telangana.
Will Chiru's good friend and BJP supporter Rajinikant mediate and make the alliance happen
Chiru's Family - Boon or Bane
Chiru's Family - Boon or Bane
Many of Chiranjeevi's family members are in public life as artistes.. Pawan Kalayan, Naga Babu, Allu ARvind, Allu Arjun etc. They are the ones who create the hype about the party. Are these members a boon (of course Pawan & Allu can attract people and can be star campaingners) or bane ( will shoo away strong political leaders from joining the party)
Voice your support or concerns!!!
