Chiranjeevi -- Political Party


Telugu Megastar Chiranjeevi is all set to unveil his political party's name, its policies at a public meeting on Aug 26, i.e. Tuesday in Tirupati.

Organisers were giving finishing touches to the arrangements for the 'mega show'. The venue is at Avilala Cheruvu, the outskirts of Tirupati. The meeting will be held from $4PM to 7PM. Arrangements have been made to enable the attendees even in the last row to witness Chiranjeevi speak and watch the proceedings on giant digital screens.

Over 126-acre ground has been cleared of bushes at the venue, where an AICC Plenary was held in 1992 during P V Narasimha Rao's regime. The mega star's fans are using all modes of transport — from trains to cabs — to reach the temple town. Ticket aspirants are said to have sponosred a large number of buses and cabs to ferry their supporters. Also, 10 special trains have been booked to take the participants and mediapersons from Hyderabad.

Meanwhile, other parties, like Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) and the Left, would decide their stance on Chiranjeevi's party on the basis of his stand on various issues.

No other political event in the recent past had evoked so much interest as Chiranjeevi's political foray and is reminiscent of legendary hero NTR's feat 25 years ago when he stormed to power within nine months of entering politics. The details of the party's name, flag and agenda are kept secret and the mega show has all the ingredients of a Chiranjeevi blockbuster movie.
