During the much hyped Yuva Gharjana, the Youth meet of Telugu Desam Party held on 5th of Nov,  Congress Party has broadcast an Ad featuring Nagarjuna praising Congress created welfare programs, "100 Days Guaranteed Work for workers and Indira Pension plan". Watch the ad.

So Nagarjuna and Chiranjeevi going separate ways?

Many Chiranjeevi fans were predicting that Nagarjuna will officially promote and back Chiranjeevi's party, given the fact that both are very close and have business relationships. This looks like a shock to many.

With flood of Movie Stars joining Politics, does stardom matter?

TDP got Nandamuri family actors. Praja Rajyam got Chiranjeevi's family of film actors. Congress breaks away family ties and got Nagarjuna and Mahesh babu, the two actors that are much more popular and loved by lot more people than both (above) families together. And Jayasudha and Raja Sekhar too. That may definitely gives Congress one notch up, the film stars tally.

But eventually, due to so many film stars entering each political party, the effect of Chiranjeevi as movie star may be partially get neutralized. It may be a bad sign for Chiranjeevi, but may not work for TDP either.

That means, Will congress win again? Oh! my God!

Akriti team learnt that Congress Party has broadcast an Ad featuring Nagarjuna praising Congress created welfare programs, "100 Days Guaranteed Work for workers and Indira Pension plan". Watch the ad.

Will there be any effect of Movie Stars at all?

TDP got Nandamuri family actors. Praja Rajyam got Chiranjeevi's family of film actors.

Congratulations Barack Obama, on winning this historic presidential race.

Barack Obama has inspired millions of people not just in US but all across the world, with a hope for a better world and relentless team work to achieve those dreams.

If what he had demonstrated in running the race offers a glimpse of what to expect in his presidency, entire world is up for a dramatic change in every way we see things and do things.  Overall, a much more understanding and prosperous America and a better world.

There are lots of key lessons to take away from this election and how he ran the race without drama and consistent and engaging message. Most importantly those historic speeches and courageous positions he took on issues much larger than life of any individual. Outstanding leadership.

Once again, Congratulations Barack Obama.

McCain speaks of few last minute strategies before the election. Well, they would have worked if he had tried little seriously, and without wavering.

This post is completely off line with our coverage on this blog. But bear with us, this stands a real good chance on Political strategies that may apply anywhere in the world.

Changing makeup and costumes is an integral part of Movie actor's life that is hard to leave. Here are few pictures from PRP Praja Ankita Yatra showing Chiranjeevi in different costumes. Reliving the life of an Actor or truly trying to understand the issues by enacting common man's life in costumes? Hard to tell.

 

Thanks to Movie stars entering into Politics, particularly Thanks to Chiranjeevi, we are witnessing a filmy variety of new and innovative ways in promoting a party.

Here is a fresh new way to promote TDP, Telugu Desam Party to win in elections.

With almost all political parties singing the 'Separate Telangana' tune, we have been wondering for a while, whether Separate Telangana really help the region and people of Telangana?

It was surprising to see that every political party, says the same thing: Telangana was neglected and only the other regions were getting all the development.

Who to Blame? Aren't the same Politicians ?

When they were in Power, when they represented the People, why didn't they say a word so far? Why didn't they ever propose a bill that would help the region grow? Or oppose a bill that would unfairly help other regions and neglect Telangana.

Was there in the history that any thing like that happen? As far as I could recollect and research, there were just 1 or 2 instances, but nothing major.

So how does it help to give power to the same politicians that neglected the region (if that is true) all the while?

The Greed For Power

We believe, the greed for power by select politicians and changing political equations is the reason. Every body want to become CM of something, number 1 of something and rule something.

How does it really help the region if made as a separate state?

Chiranjeevi today finally spoke his mind and ignited the 'CASTE' spark. Without naming any specific caste, he said, people in lower population and ruling the people in higher population and the higher population should fight and PRP will support them.

There is no hiding in his message. Everybody in Andhra Pradesh know who are those people in lower population. They are so low, one caste is just 5% and the other about 8% but have been ruling all these years.

Caste Will Work. Principles May Not

Comparatively, Chiranjeevi's caste now has about 30% of population. So I guess you can see the equation. May be, PRP realized ideology doesn't work, so going down the Politically correct but morally corrupt path.

Isn't Movie Industry The Same?

I guess the same thing happens in Movies too? Only few lower population people lead and earn all the money in movies too. Often the money spent by those higher population. Why Chiranjeevi that spent all his life so far in Movies never offered his LEAD role to some one from that higher population? Or said, similar things in movie world?

"I owe my success to Andhra People and I am here to Serve them". That is what Chiranjeevi said as motivation behind entering into politics. While he hasn't spent any money at Grand level so far to serve People, he spent crores to arrange the movie style high octane Inaugural meeting at Tirupathi. Lakhs of movie star fans from all around the state attended the function. The 'Praja Ankita' yatra follows the stint with equal vigor and cost.

PRP Already Began Couting Votes..

PRP and Chiranjeevi pretend for some time that the amount of people attending to the meetings as their support to his politically certain agenda and count them as real votes that could win him the election. Predictions of Godavari districts with 20,000 majority was plain stupid, but explain whats going on in PRP leaders' minds.

Time to Show TDP's Stardom, Money and Muscle

Now its the time for the other parties to show their so called political strength to the people of Andhra Pradesh, that people are behind them too. No political party has dearth of money or the muscle to gather masses to election meetings. Chandra Babu naidu's ananthapur address was unbelievably attended by lakhs of people though many might have already forgotten. I was shocked to see lakhs of people turning even to Roja's meetings these days. I don't know what is going on in Andhra people minds, but I don't have a clue.

On 5th November, Bala Krishna will energize the political dais with his inaugural political address in a much expensive and grandeur scale meeting. Having so much confusion on what would be his role in TDP, people are assuming the way want it to be.

Yuvagarjana is hitting the grounds on November 5th and inside news reveals that it is going to beat the standards of Chranjeevi's show at Avilala stadium in Tirupathi on August 26th. 'Yuvagarjana' is going to be held at Acharya Nagarjuna University where the arrangements are being done in grand scale.

Our View: May Stir TDP cadres, but Doubtful Impact

Irrespective of the amount of masses that attend to this meeting and success or failure of the meeting,  Jagriti team do not think, it would have the kind of impact that Chiranjeevi had.

What do you think?

Watch this internal meeting broadcast, reportedly recorded and leaked (believed to be quite deliberately) out to public, where Chiranjeevi explain the political strategy of Spying on other political leaders to win in the elections.

So finally, this is what Praja Rajyam is all about?

This is the inspiration Chiranjeevi got from Abdul Kalam, Gandhiji and Mother Theresa? How cheap politicians can go? leaving the ideology aside, to win in the elections?

May be, we are too naive to expect anything different from politicians. We thought, Politics will change fro good with the introduction of Chiranjeevi, but Chiranjeevi is changing himself to fit into politics instead.
