The Janasena chief Power Star Pawan Kalyan put a thought provoking demand to the union government on Padma awards. On account of Republic day, Power Star hoisted national flag at Janasena office this morning.
Addressing to the media Pawan Kalyan conveyed his wishes to Padma award winners Maestro Ilayaraja and badminton player Kidambi Srikanth. He felt legendary actress Mahanati Savitri and thespian SV Ranga Rao should have been conferred Padma awards.
In fact, Tollywood's celebs have been demanding the same over decades but the state governments kept a blind eye on the said demand without referring their names to union government. As a matter of fact, the awards themselves would be honoured for being conferred to the legendary actors. Hope, the government should consider the demand seriously, next year.
