winning election is not that easy as acing as leader in a film.Fans are the only electorate and in case of Chiranjjevi his fan base is that strong a one to motivate people to vote for him. That he happens to run a blood bank does not automatically mean that he enjoys support of the people to win an election.The big hits of three films-Indra,Tagore & Stalin wherein he was depicted as one espousing the cause of people cannot be a factor for electoral success.He cannot equate himself with NTR who got deep into the hearts of Telugu people in several ways-mainly on his clarity over the self respect of Telugu people.Things were different when he(NTR) entered politics.His main opponent was only Congress & Congress alone.With proliferation all sundry & big parties, Chiranjeevi's sailing is very tough.He appears to have been misled by his family coterie.His understanding of the politics is poor with equal ignorance of issues of national importance.If he is banking on the votes of his caste ,the predominance of which is confined mostly to Godavary districts,he is wrong.Let him also not feel flabbergasted by the 3 to 4 defectors from TDP who are factually not that big forces to reckon with.Once identified, people will not believe such wall jumpers.As he told years back once,let him continue to hate politics.He is known for his break dances & like them,he may at best,break(split) the votes of the two main parties in the state i.e Congress & TDP.Let him look before he leaps.

I think he should tie-up with BJP and give third alternative to the people of AP.
