Suddenly, there is a great demand for actor-turned-politician Chiranjeevi.
Ever since he made a well-calibrated announcement that he would quit acting career, his brand value appears to have gone up by several notches.
The requests are pouring in from several quarters, wanting him to don the greasepaint again. After Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan, it is now the turn of screen diva Rekha to request Chiranjeevi to do a movie.
During the Filmfare award function on Saturday night, Rekha disclosed her wish. She said she wanted to see Chiranjeevi acting alongside her in a Hindi movie. When the evergreen actress made an open request from the stage, Chiru was seen blushing. Amidst thunderous applause from the audience, Rekha spoke in Telugu and urged Chiranjeevi to act in a Hindi movie with her.
“After the Hindi movie, you can take up a Telugu film. But, you must act with me first,” Rekha said.
This comes as a bonanza for Chiranjeevi as Amitabh Bachchan had also made a request to him recently to take up his 150th film.
Though Chiranjeevi had public his wish to quit acting to pursue his chief ministerial ambitions, it seems he enjoys greater following among the film folks than common public.
