Hi Raja Sekhar Gaaru,

I feel you are a very good actor and I liked your performances in some movies such as pratighaTana, Ahuti, ankuSam, chennApaTnam chinnOLLu (one of my all-time favorite comedy movies because of Chandra Mohan acting), Station Master etc.

As a bystander, I am responding to the recent pandemoniac havoc that you initiated(knowingly or unknowingly) with some provocative statements on Chiru's political entry. First of all, you should have remembered that you are a film celebrity and should have contained yourself, no matter how badly the media forces you to speak out your candid opinions on Chiru's polical entry. It seemed to us that you wanted to take an advantage of the point that every Indian citizen has a right to "talk", when you wanted to speak out your comments. But being a film celebrity, you can not talk like common citizens in the public...your words will carefully be considered by each and every one. It certainly seems to be your immaturity in the first place to speak out such damaging words on a fellow Telugu star. We have earlier seen a lot of professional rivalry between stars (NTR-ANR, NTR-Krishna, Krishna-Sobhan Babu, Krishna-Chiru, Chiru-Balayya), but none of them never ever utter even a single word against the other star in the public. Unfortunately a few people like Mohan Babu and yourself have started this nasty game in the recent times.

You all (in the Telugu film industry) know very well how easily Nandamuri and Mega fans can be provoked with some damaging statements on thier demi-gods. If you take any popular Telugu star, you will see a collection of well-behaved as well as easily-provokable fans for them and Chiru is no way is an exception. I strongly condemn the attack on your family in Hyderabad. But when you learnt that Chiru fans were really upset with you in Guntur, why did you not take enough precautions (at least for your family sake, if you really love them and want to protect them), when you got down in the Secunderabad railway station? Say, you could have waited in the Railway station until the morning and made some special arrrangements with the Police protection or so. What made you ignore the seriousness in that kind of situation? In this era of the cell phones, Hyd Chiru fans could have easily been intimated with in minutes about your arrival in Hyd.. when you got down in the railway station, you should have realized what kind of trouble you have invited with your thoughtless statements (you may say that it is a bold and candid opinion of yours and you have every right to talk so). Don't you think your temerity ended your family up in that predicament?
