Has Chiru family isolated Pawan Kalyan?

The conspicuous absence of megastar Chiranjeevi at the audio release function of Panja, the forthcoming block buster movie of his brother, power star Pawan Kalyan in Hyderabad, on Saturday, raised many eyebrows in the film circles.

Audio release functions of films have attained a lot of significance these days because they kick off the promotion for the film and so, all the bigwigs in the film associated with the actors or actresses or directors invariably attend the function to promote the film. Normally, Chiranjeevi does not skip such functions involving his family members – whether it is his son Ram Charan Teja, nephew Allu Arjun or brother-in-law Allu Aravind.

But on Saturday, none of Chiranjeevi’s family members – his elder brother Naga Babu, son Ramcharan Teja, Allu Aravind or Allu Arjun was present at the function to promote Pawan Kalyan. Even the power star’s wife Renu Desai was conspicuous by her absence.

All through the film function, Pawan Kalyan appeared lonely. Though he tried to hide his disappointment, it was evident on his face. As if rubbing salt on his wounds, anchor Suma said: “Allu Arjun, Vinayak and Harish Shankar were stuck in traffic and hence they couldn’t reach here on time.” Pawan Kalyan felt uncomfortable at that moment.

He tried to put up a brave face, saying he had to do a lot of hard work to reach this stage. “This recognition to me has not come overnight nor did I inherit from anyone. It was because of my hard work and the support of fans,” he said, in an indirect reference to his brother Chiranjeevi.

But the fans could not but talk about the absence of Chiranjeevi. “We all know how Chiranjeevi rushes to Delhi whenever Congress president Sonia Gandhi calls him. We have seen how he came to Badrinath audio function along with his wife and daughter. We know how his face glows bright in the family functions of Allu Aravind. But why did he avoid Pawan Kalyan’s function? Well, even if he was busy, he would have sent his representatives. Is this the unity we wish to see in Mega family?” a fan lamented.

The bottom-line is that the fans are worried over the growing distance between Chiranjeevi and Pawan Kalyan. All that they wish is to see the mega family remain united in all aspects.
