hyderabad sources stated that it is not worth being in politics if you are a sensitive human being, megastar chiranjeevi has said, in a message to rajinikanth and kamal hassan and his advice to both the star turned politicians "stay away from politics". Meanwhile in an interview to popular Tamil magazine Ananda Vikatan, chiranjeevi said he was "Number One" in his cinematic career when he took the plunge into politics with the intention of "doing good".
chiranjeevi said "Politics today is all about money and I was defeated in my own constituency using crores of rupees. Same happened to my brother pawan kalyan in the recent elections”. Furthermore to be in politics you need to face defeat, disappointments and humiliation, the megastar said. He hoped that rajinikanth and kamal hassan were built differently and would be able to face all challenges, disappointments, if they are determined to stay on in politics and work for the people.
Moreover chiranjeevi said he had hoped kamal hassan would do well in the recent parliamentary elections but unfortunately that did not happen. Perhaps kamal hassan himself did not contest and his party did not win any seat, but rajinikanth has not yet formed a political party or contested an election. Moreover chiranjeevi had announced his Praja Rajyam Party in Andhra Pradesh's Tirupati in August 2008 and in the 2009 elections, his party won 18 of the 294 seats. He had contested from two places, Tirupati and his hometown Palacole, where he was defeated.
