2 big films one is on 11nth and the other is on 12th. They are just before Sankranthi. Sankranthi falls on 13,14nth and 15nth. The stars represent two communities in the society and also two political parties.
The stars might not feel any competiton but for the fans and the followers, it is a prestige question. They want the film of their hero to be a hit. When it comes to Chiranjeevi he is still with the Congress party and was a central minister from the party and represents Kaapu community in AP.
The other man Balakrishna represents Kamma community and is an MLA of the ruling party in the AP . He is related to the CM of AP and is son of the former legendery actor NTR who was also the CM of AP and founder of the TDP .
These are the big names at the box office and both are at peak doing their 100th and 15oth films. The overseas market is also hot with this talk. Two of Tollywood’s biggest stars, Mega Star Chiranjeeviand Nandamuri Balakrishnaare all set to release their landmark films for Sankranthi.
While Khaidi No 150, Chiranjeevi’s 150 th film is set to release on Jan 11, Gautamiputra Satakarni Balayya 100 th is scheduled to release on 12 th . Looks like it’s going to be a battle after all. Whether or not the stars themselves feel the rivalry, the fans are keeping the heat up.
On the other hand Chiranjeevi has organised the prerelease function today in Guntur and it is reported that his brother who is also doing politics with Janasena would grace the occasion. Both the brothers have good fan following but they are not converting into votes.
Chiranjeevi could not garner support for Congress and it lost miserably in AP. But Pawan helped BJP and the TDP to win the recent election with some edge.
