Telangana Government held a Grand Felicitation ceremony for Megastar Chiranjeevi and other Telugu Padma Awards at a Grand Event in Shilpa Kala Vedhika, Hyderabad. Chief Minister Revanth Reddy is the Chief Guest.
There are reports that the response from Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy towards Chiranjeevi is not good.
Some people are saying that Chiranjeevi expressed his unhappiness about Jagan’s response indirectly through his speech.
Speaking about Telangana Government’s initiative to felicitate, Chiranjeevi started his speech saying, “ఎక్కడ కళాకారులు గౌరవించపడతారో ఆ రాజ్యం సుభిక్షంగా ఉంటుంది”.
Later on, he also praised Revanth Reddy saying that no Government has proactively felicitated the artists so quickly after the announcement of the awards.
Chiranjeevi gave utmost respect to Jagan Mohan Reddy for the industry despite being a rival for his brother, Pawan Kalyan. But Jagan did not reciprocate to that.
Sources say that Jagan did not wish Chiranjeevi personally after the Awards announcement and only released a formal Press Note from the CMO.
So, these comments of Chiranjeevi are taken as a disappointment about the Andhra Pradesh Government’s response.
But then, frankly given the monumental achievement of Chiranjeevi and the response he is getting now, Jagan responding or not responding properly is nothing. It would be respectful for Jagan himself if he responded nicely.
