Hyderabad: Soon after actor Manchu Vishnu was elected as the new president of the Movie Artists Association (MAA), Bharatiya Janata Party State president Bandi Sanjay Kumar not only heaped praises on veteran actor Mohan Babu’s son but also thanked voters for preventing Prakash Raj from taking the crown.
Criticising Prakash Raj for his stance against the nationalist approach of the BJP, he said, “Congratulations to all the winners on both panels, including Manchu Vishnu. Thanks to our voters who have defeated the forces against nationalism. The right lesson has been taught to those who supported the Tukde gang who wanted to break the country.”
“The people of the two Telugu states were waiting to see what decision our voters would make. Our voters gave an inspiring verdict. Congratulations to all.”
Meanwhile, Prakash Raj resigned from MAA membership on Monday. Speaking to the media, he said, “People like BJP leader Bandi Sanjay tweeted about our loss. I have a 21-year-old affiliation with MAA. However, the elections were held based on regionalism and nationalism. The motto MAA members follow is that non-Telugu persons can vote but shouldn’t contest in elections.”
He further added that the bond he has with the Telugu audience would continue through movies.
