Balakrishna is known for his straightforward attitude with can be sometimes mistaken for being egoistic and superiority complex. His latest interview is a big example where he advised actors not to enter politics as Balayya opines that politics is not suitable for artists.

He took the examples of Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan and Tollywood megastar Chiranjeevi, who are good examples of failures in politics though they have an immense fan following. Balayya even thinks their blood is different and hence, they can survive in politics.
We know, politics is a serious job and entering politics in the present scenario will not be an easy job. The way he said looks egoistic, but it can be easily understood that there is no diplomacy when he made this comment, though it sounded crude when he said, “Amitabh em peekaadu politics lo?” (What could Amitabh achieve in politics?)
By the way, Balakrishna announced Mokshagna’s debut in June, next year.
