Now that megastar-turned-Congress MP Chiranjeevi has decided to get back into serious acting by doing his 150th film to be directed by ace film maker Puri Jagannath, there is every possibility that he might as well dump politics for good.
According to sources, there has been immense pressure on Chiranjeevi to quit politics as he could not make it big in the field. Moreover, the Congress party does not have any future in AP for at least another one decade and he cannot jump into any other party right now.
On the other hand, he still commands a lot of respect in the film industry and enjoys huge following among fans. So, it is better to get back into films and regain the hold over industry, sources quoting film industry circles said.
However, Chiranjeevi has time as an MP till 2018. Though he may not be actively participating in the Congress party affairs or for that matter politics, he cannot resign from the Rajya Sabha membership just like that.
His advisers are telling him that he might retain his MP seat and at the same time, can continue doing films. He might even set up a film city in Seemandhra using his MP position in the coming days, say sources.
