RGV hopes Pawan Kalyan does a Rajinikanth in Andhra

Chennai Jan 3 (IANS) Filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma hopes that Telugu film actor-turned-politician Pawan Kalyan contests all seats in Andhra Pradesh like superstar Rajinikanth is doing in Tamil Nadu.

Varma on Tuesday tweeted: "I wish Pawan Kalyan will contest all seats in Andhra Pradhesh like Rajinikanth (is) doing in Tamil Nadu.

"If he doesn t do Pawan Kalyan s fans will feel he doesn t have guts like Rajinikanth. It will be an insult to Telugu people s prestige if our superstar has lesser guts than the superstar of Tamil people.

"If Pawan Kalyan doesn t with guts contest in each and every seat of Andhra Pradesh both his fans and all Telugu people will feel he s just a very ordinary star and not a superstar like Rajinikanth of the Tamil people."

Rajinikanth on December 31 announced his plans for a political career. He will float a new party that will pursue "spiritual politics" and vowed to contest the next Tamil Nadu Assembly elections.
