Chiru take Congress membership

Hyderabad, August 22: The process of merger of the Praja Rajyam Party with the ruling Congress was completed Monday with its legislators and leaders taking Congress membership here.
The occasion, coinciding with the 56th birthday of PRP chief K. Chiranjeevi, was celebrated with a meeting at Gandhi Bhavan, the Congress party headquarters.
PRP legislators and state-level leaders took the Congress party membership from state Congress chief Botsa Satyanarayana in the presence of Chief Minister N. Kiran Kumar Reddy and Chiranjeevi, who already took the party membership in Delhi two days ago.
The actor-turned-politician, who had floated PRP in 2008 with the slogan of social justice, said it was a memorable birthday celebrations for him. He said he was happy to merge his party with Congress.
The merger was completed on a day when 29 legislators, including 26 of Congress party loyal to YSR Congress party leader Y.S. Jaganmohan Reddy, resigned to protest the inclusion of his father and late chief minister Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy's name in an FIR registered by CBI.
PRP has 18 legislators including Chiranjeevi. However, one legislator of the party loyal to Jaganmohan Reddy resigned Monday.
Chiranjeevi, the chief minister and also state Congress president referred to the resignations and criticized Jagan, without naming him.
Chiranjeevi said there was no threat to the government and it would continue to function in a smooth manner. He said the legislators who resigned Monday were supporting corruption by siding with those facing corruption charges.
Kiran Kumar Reddy said nobody can defeat Congress party and exuded confidence that it would emerge stronger.
Without naming Jagan, Botsa Satyanarayana alleged that some people were using money power to buy legislators.
"They think they can do anything by using money power. It is the responsibility of every Congress worker to defeat the conspiracy to destabilize the government," he said.

Chiranjeevi Announces Supprt to Anna Team

Prajarajyam president K Chiranjeevi has come out in open support of Anna Hazare's fast and his fight against corruption. After the merger of the two parties, Chiranjeevi is scheduled to formally join the Congress on August 20 and has emerged as perhaps the only political leader from the ruling party circles to align with Hazare.

Addressing the media after unfurling the national flag at the Chiranjeevi blood bank on Monday, the PRP chief said anyone who fights corruption needs to be encouraged and commended. Thanking social activists for their unstinted fight against corruption, Chiranjeevi said a stage has come where people have become intolerable to corruption. "I am pained at the plundering of mineral wealth by certain vested interests. It makes me wonder whether people are really enjoying the fruits of freedom or are still being exploited by these few people under the garb of power," Chiranjeevi pointed out.

However, he went on to add that the fight against corruption will have to be within the constitutional frame work. Calling for a wider debate on the Lokpal bill, Chiranjeevi felt that the proposal from civil societies to bring the PM and judiciary under the bill may not be practical.

MEGA STAR'S MEGA RECORD IN MEGA CITY

"There are basically two levels to handle any unforeseen opportunity: 1. The spiritual-if God is all and you are part of that, just relax, 2. All the rest. For this you must get your act together, so that you can shift gears as required" writes David Allen in his best selling business book "Ready for Anything" subtitled "52 productivity principles for work and life". But after a low profile debut in Punaadhi Rallu (1978), Konidhela Shivashankara Prasadh took the "Zen approach" or "the middle way" to succeed in his profession. In an act of total submission to his favorite God lord Hanuman, he rechristened himself as "Chiranjeevi" and with a renewed vigor, he strove hard to become the Megastar of Telugu Cinema.

Widely acknowledged as the man who drafted a new set of rules for contemporary Telugu cinema, Megastar-"Annayya" to his fans- has acted in 140 movies till date. Though his movies generally fare well all over the state, he has an exceptional record in Hyderabad. 62 of his movies (including Shankar Dada M.B.B.S) have run for 50 days or more in their main theaters here. He also holds the record for maximum number of direct 100 days movies (32) in the capital city and he is also the only hero to have 7 direct 100's before and after the introduction of the slab system of taxation (1984) by the state government.

While these records are the result of Chiranjeevi's hard work, charm and mass appeal, Allu Aravind, his brother-in-law and svangeli, also shares the credit for his behind the scenes endeavors. As a producer, distributor and exhibitor (Aravind was a leasee of Sandhya complex for several years), he has been doing an excellent job in safeguarding Chiru's movies from unqualified terminations

With Chiru in top-form since returning from a sabbatical (1996) and with no consistent competition around, he is neatly positioned to create several more records in the coming years. But for now, here is the list of his movies that have run for 50 days or more at their main theaters in Hyderabad.

In fact, time spent with all my friends gives me great joy. My favourite quote about friendship is a dialogue from the movie It’s a Wonderful Life — “Remember George, no man is a failure who has friends.”
Not a day goes by without connecting with my friends.”
