Politics: Watch Mahanayakudu know about me - Babu to Modi

In almost all of his recent public meetings, Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu attacks Prime Minister Narendra Modi for ignoring special category status to the state. The other day, while addressing a public meeting at the Kodumuru in Kurnool district, Chandrababu Naidu said: "Modi is trying to frighten all of them who are speaking against him. But, I'm not going to go back to compromise when it comes to the interests of people."

During the same speech, Babu made comments which drew mixed reactions from Internet users and it did not go down well with netizens. AP CM advised Modi to watch the recent biopic of NTR, Mahanayakudu, to learn about him. Babu said, "If you want to know about me, watch Mahanayakudu movie. Remember that it was me who fought against the center in 1982 and showed the power of Telugu people."

This statement has become a kind of laughing stock on social media and some netizens asked 'Is Babu promoting the flop film Mahanayakudu or is he trying to promote his own image by asking Modi to watch the film.' Making use of the film based on NTR to promote his own character, played by Rana Daggubati, attracts nothing but a small cheer from TDP cadre. Yes, it is definitely time to rev up the attack on Modi but it's nice to attack him more politically which Naidu is well known for. On another hand, some reports are in circulation that TDP blocked Mahanayakudu film tickets for 50 days in AP.
