Megastar Chiranjeevi is now holidaying in Europe, according to sources. He will be back only after the New Year. His absence from Hyderabad for such a long time simply means that he will not meet Srija for at least three months. It is to be seen whether Chiranjeevi will meet or at least make attempts to meet his beloved daughter who had incurred her family's wrath after she eloped and married with a boy outside her caste.

Meanwhile rumours are rife that the film star has deliberately chosen to be away from the State Capital, particularly when Srija and her husband Sirish are arriving from Delhi.

In the absence of Chiranjeevi in Hyderabad, his brother Pawan Kalyan is looking after the family affairs. But he is maintaining restraint, a calculated one at that, so as to avoid any confrontation with the newly married couple. Srija told mediapersons that she and her husband had not made any effort for a rapprochement with her family. Will she meet Chiranjeevi and seek his forgiveness or will she prefer her husband to her family, only time will tell us. But at present, the newly married couple are leaving no stone unturned to gain as much media attention as possible. It is a clever strategy to ensure that they are safe from any attacks or threats.
