Many TV actors and comedians supported Pawan Kalyan in the Pithapuram Assembly constituency, along with members of the Mega family, including Varun Tej, Sai Dharam Tej, and Vaisshnav Tej.
Pawan Kalyan also received support from Nani, which raised some eyebrows since Nani isn't from the Mega family. However, he is eager to see the YS Jagan government deposed and openly backed Pawan Kalyan in a tweet.
Within the Telugu film industry, there is pressure on the pro-TDP group to publicly support Pawan Kalyan and Chandrababu Naidu.
Some influential figures are urging stars and directors to post social media messages wishing Pawan Kalyan success and mentioning "Kootami," the TDP-Jana Sena-BJP alliance.
They believe that if these celebrities show support for Pawan Kalyan, it will be interpreted as a display of solidarity within the fraternity.
However, many top and mid-level stars and directors are hesitant to express their political views on public platforms.
