Starting Saturday, senior Telugu film actor-producer and former Rajya Sabha member Manchu Mohan Babu will kick-start his campaign for the YSR Congress party, in which he had joined early this week.
Interestingly, the first person Mohan Babu would be targeting in the Telugu Desam Party in his first campaign trail would be Nara Lokesh Babu, TDP general secretary and son of party president and chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu.
Mohan Babu will start his first election rally from Mangalagiri and the party leaders are expecting that his histrionic speeches will definitely attract huge crowds.
He has chosen Mangalagiri for obvious reasons because it will give him an opportunity to expose Naidu and his son at a time.
For the people of the constituency who are getting disgusted with the speeches of Lokesh which are full of goofs-up and tongue-slips, Mohan Babu’s speeches will be definitely electrifying.
He is expected to highlight the failures of the Naidu government and draw attention to the YSRC manifesto.
According to party sources, Mohan Babu, despite being a late entrant into the party, will turn out to be a major star campaigner. Because of his oratory skills, he will be definitely a major crowd puller, say analysts.
The party is expecting Mohan Babu to make extensive tour of several constituencies, as he has huge fan following among the people.
His appeal to the voters to cast their vote for YSRC will have a great impact on the party’s prospects, a party source said.
