In connection with being adjudged for NTR award, legendary singer Sp Balasubrahmanyam posted a message in gratitude in fb page. Obviously, he was lauded by his followers for his achievement.
However, one of the followers question and SPB's reply for him was thought provoking. " I knw sir ...Hw u struggled lot...But one think y always u expect respect frm all....Like u always ask chiranjevee was calling me bro but he his calling balugaru....Y so always eagar fr respct I dnt knw...I didn't like tat...But related to song....I like u more than any1," a fan posted message on SPB's facebook page.
However, SPB replied, "Sir, when Chiranjeevi calls me BALU GARU, I told him ," You always called me ANNAYYA in the past. Why GARU now" It is not asking for respect. Asking for LOVE."
But then, SPB should realize the fact that crores of fans treat Chiranjeevi as Annayya and should be more than anyone else for them. According to them, 'Annayya' word is also an indication of one's superiority over others in any respect. "Chiranjeevi and SPB might wish each other using any sort of salutation personally. But then, when appear on stage, they should definitely keep fans feelings in consideration," opines an observer.
