Megastar Chiranjeevi floated own political party PRP prior to 2009's general elections and merged the party into the Congress post the party's defeat in the poll battle. Interim, Megastar gave jitters to then ruling party Congress and opposition party TDP.
From then on TDP developed fear on Chiranjeevi. When the Megastqar's Khaidi Number 150 was slated for release for Sankranthi season last year, TDP has gone panic and created obstacles for the film's pre release function which was earlier planned in Vijayawada and then Guntur but finally organized at Haailand. Pro TDP TV channels also gave huge publicity for Balakrishna's Gauthamiputra Satakarni and tried to ignore KN 150. With their dismay, KN 150 minted Rs.106 crores share collections while GPS settled with hit status.
In contrast to KN 150 TDP has done a great favour to Power Star Pawan Kalyan's Agnyathavasi. The film was permitted to get screened between 1 pm and 10 am. Janasena party's alliance with TDP is said to be the reason for TDP's friendly gesture on Agnyathavasi. Nevertheless, it remains to be seen whether Power Star Continues same stand on TDP or not.
