Deccan Chronicle had published a story on Monday about the possibility of director Puri Jagannadh joining YS Jagan led YSR Congress Party. The paper had reported that he is trying for Anakapalle seat in his home-town Narsipatnam falls. Puri Jagan’s brother is active member of YS Jagan’s party and YS Jagan’s mother Vijayamma and sister Sharmila stayed at Puri Jagan’s residence at his native village near Narsipatnam during their Odarpu Yatra some months ago.
However, Puri did not approve or condemn these reports, He even went on to bunk yesterday’s press meet even though it was held at his office instead distributor Dil Raju and producer Danayya spoke.
