Chiranjeevi and Balakrishna were near opponents in film industry because both of them were strong contenders to Number One position of TFI during 1980 and 90’s. Unlikely they too share a good and affectionate bond of friendship. While Chiranjeevi lost his Mega Star status in Tollywood by entering into politics, now Balakrishna is all set to contest in 2014 Assembly elections obviously with strong eye set on Chief Minister seat.
Balayya Babu on speaking to media yesterday in Vijayawada said, ‘I would arrive into active politics in 2014 by contesting in elections from any constituency which TDP and its high command would decide. I am ready for any center.’ Reacting to a question on how his contemporary cinema artist Chiranjeevi failed as a politician Balakrishna gave a shocking reply.
‘Chiranjeevi entered into politics at wrong time with wrong motive. He has no aim to serve the people and is suffering now.’ Unlike Chiru, in the coming future Balakrishna will continue to act in films even after entering into direct politics.
