Former chief minister and Telugu Desam president N Chandrababu Naidu is known for his political strategies which many other politicians fail to comprehend. Before taking any major decision or policy issue, Chandrababu Naidu releases "feelers" to select media through his confidants. Once the news is flashed and reactions start pouring in, Chandrababu Naidu will sit up and decide whether to march ahead with the new idea or drop it. If he wants to march ahead, he will simply confirm the news reports. If he sees something negative reaction, he will issue statement saying that the media has been speculative and the report is not factual.

Many political observers are of the view that mega star Chiranjeevi also adopted Chandrababu Naidu's strategy. Though he is now denying having authorised any one to speak on his behalf, sources point out the person who had leaked out the information to select group of media persons was a close friend of the film actor. Without the approval of the film star, the person would not dare to speak to the Press on such an important issue as the entry of Chiranjeevi into politics.

Further, the fans would not take out big rallies all over the State without the nod from either the film star himself or those very close to him. Perhaps the film star thought that time was not ripe for him to enter politics. Or perhaps he wants to erase the mark as "Kapu leader", before announcing a new political party.
