Nandamuri Balakrishna is juggling multiple roles as a Hindupur MLA, chairman of a cancer hospital, and a film hero.
He currently has two films in hand and is being approached by numerous producers and directors. Given his busy schedule, there arises a question of whether he also bears the responsibility of launching his son as a hero.
Considering these circumstances, the speculation about his potential re-election in Hindupur remains doubtful, according to sources. There are reports suggesting that Balakrishna may no longer be actively involved in politics.
Balakrishna has been noticeably absent from the political scene for over a month now.
After Chandrababu's imprisonment, Balakrishna was seen active in party offices twice and once near the jail. However, he has not returned to Andhra Pradesh since then.
Rumors circulated that either CBN or Lokesh might have deterred him from re-entering politics, although the truth remains unclear.
Even if he finds some space after Bhagawant Kesari, it appears that Balakrishna is not inclined to rejoin the political arena.
He briefly met Chandrababu after his release from jail, but that was the extent of his political activity.
With the approaching election season, Balakrishna, if interested in contesting and winning, must pay attention to Hindupur. However, he seems to lack enthusiasm at the moment.
Regardless of whether TDP wins or loses, Balakrishna has little to lose personally. He faced no significant issues during the last five years under the governments of KCR and Jagan.
Consequently, there would be no substantial impact if he decides not to contest as an MLA. However, if he intends to contest, he should start focusing on the constituency from now on.
Given these circumstances, there is speculation in political circles about whether Balakrishna is considering retiring from politics.
