In a heartwarming convergence of cinema and politics, Powerstar Pawan Kalyan recently visited his elder brother Megastar Chiranjeevi on the sets of the latter’s upcoming fantasy film, Vishwambhara. This visit not only marks a rare public appearance of the two stars together but also underscores the dynamic shifts in their respective careers over the years.
Back in 2008, Chiranjeevi took a significant leap from cinema to politics by launching the Praja Rajyam Party, dedicating a decade to his political career with only cameo appearances in films. Meanwhile, Pawan Kalyan continued to charm the silver screen with hits like Jalsa and Gabbar Singh. Fast forward to 2024, while Chiranjeevi has resumed his illustrious acting career, Pawan Kalyan is now the one deeply engrossed in politics, campaigning for the upcoming Lok Sabha election from Pithapuram.
The meeting on the Vishwambhara set was shared by Chiranjeevi on social media, featuring a video with high-energy background scores fitting both the actors. Pawan Kalyan’s entry, accompanied by his entourage and dressed in a politician’s white, contrasted Chiranjeevi’s vibrant and stylish appearance, ready for his shot against the backdrop of a grand Hanuman set.
The occasion was further sweetened by the presence of actress Trisha, playing the heroine in Vishwambhara, who received a sapling gift from Pawan Kalyan. The video, released to mark the Telugu festival Ugadi, showcased the festive spirit on set.
Vishwambhara, directed by Mallidi Vasishta and set for a 2025 release, is anticipated to be a cornerstone of a larger universe created by the director. Vasishta, who debuted with the blockbuster hit Bimbisara, has already stirred excitement among the Telugu audience with this ambitious project.
In a show of support for his brother’s political endeavor, Chiranjeevi has donated Rs 5 crore to the Jana Sena party, led by Pawan Kalyan. The party is gearing up for the Andhra Pradesh Lok Sabha and Legislative Assembly elections, presenting a formidable front alongside TDP and BJP.
The meeting between the brothers at the Vishwambhara shooting location, accompanied by their brother Naga Babu, underscored the strong familial bonds despite their diverging paths. As Andhra Pradesh and the country gear up for the elections, the Chiranjeevi and Pawan Kalyan’s union serves as a poignant reminder of the intricate interplay between cinema, politics, and personal relationships in the public eye.
