NTR's son Balakrishna may enter politics after Chiranjeevi

Actor Nandamuri Balakrishna, son of N T Rama Rao, the late matinee idol and Telugu Desam Party founder,appeared to be gearing up for an imminent political foray, an evident bid to counter the impact of actor-turned-politician Chiranjeevi on the Telugu Desam Party (TDP).

As a herald to his political entry, Balakrishna inaugurated an 'Annadanam' (mass feeding) programme at the charitable trust here, named after his mother late Basava Tarakam.

He said, while talking to the reporters, he had come to extend support to his fans and TDP activists who took up charity to help the poor.

Replying to a query, he vowed to work for regaining the glory of the Telugu Desam Party(TDP). He would participate in TDP's youth convention at Guntur later this month

Balakrishna, a brother-in-law to TDP Chief N Chandrababu Naidu, has been holding consultations with him on the possible impact of Chiranjeevi's political entry on the regional party.

Balakrishna's daughter Brahmani is married to Naidu's only son Lokesh.Last week, Naidu family , hosted a lunch for Balakrishna and his brothers's family, where campaign strategies were discussed.
