Andhra Jyothy managing director V Radha Krishna appears to be blindly imitating his Eenadu counterpart Ramoji Rao, in promoting Megastar Chiranjeevi.

Even before Chiranjeevi deciding on his political career, Andhra Jyothy is writing stories on him left, right and center, conducting surveys and publishing reports, supporting Chiranjeevi's entry into politics. The daily has started describing Chiru as a demi-god, a messaiah of masses and a new hope for the downtrodden.

If one closely watches all these stories, one can understand that Radha Krishna is also planning to emerge as a king maker in the long run, just as Ramoji Rao did in 1982. When the Telugu Desam was established, Ramoji Rao went out of the way to promote NTR and even campaigned for him and selected candidates for various Assembly constituencies on behalf of the TD. His Eenadu newspaper published photographs of NTR taking bath on the road side. He did not mind getting the tag of a Telugu Desam dabba.

Now, Radha Krishna is doing the same through his paper Andhra Jyothi and wants to see that Chiranjeevi becomes next Cheif Minister. Incidentally, Radha Krishna and Chiranjeevi are good friends. While Chiru attended the bumper draw held by AJ management to pep up its circulation, Radha Krishna attended the preview function of "Chirutha" movie, enacted by Megastar's son Ram Charan Teja and gave a good publicity in his daily. If Chiranjeevi becomes the Chief Minister, Radha Krishna will be a billionaire in less than a month, for which he is ready to dump even Chandrababu Naidu. Like Ramoji Rao, Radha Krishna might also occupy huge extents of land in the name of publicity. What is more, Chiranjeevi would be a puppet in the hands of Radha Krishna politically, as Naidu is now in the hands of Ramoji!!
