Congress cheating public with false guarantees: Anurag Thakur
Rahul Gandhi is losing the elections from Wayanad and may file nomination from some other place soon, he claimed.
Renowned filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma has sparked a whirlwind of speculation by announcing his intention to contest in the Lok Sabha elections from the Pithapuram constituency in Andhra Pradesh. In a surprising turn of events, Varma took to social media to share this unexpected decision, catching many off guard.
Initially, the announcement triggered a flurry of excitement among his followers and the media, with many interpreting it as a plunge into the political arena. However, Varma swiftly clarified his statement, indicating that his involvement was related to a short film contest and not electoral politics. Despite the clarification, the fervor surrounding his potential candidacy continued to intensify.

The political landscape in Pithapuram has been further enlivened by the recent declaration of Pawan Kalyan, the leader of Janasena party, announcing his candidacy from the same constituency. This move follows the allocation of the Pithapuram seat to Janasena as part of the seat-sharing arrangement between TDP, BJP, and Janasena.
The decision has not been without its repercussions, as supporters of TDP’s former MLA and aspirant SVSN Varma expressed their discontent by criticizing TDP leadership and staging protests.
Ram Gopal Varma’s foray into the political realm is not entirely unexpected, given his outspoken nature and penchant for delving into controversial subjects. In the past, he has been vocal in his criticism of prominent political figures, including Chandrababu Naidu and Pawan Kalyan.
Varma’s influence extends beyond the realm of politics; he is a celebrated figure in both Telugu and Hindi cinema, renowned for his gritty portrayals of gangster and political themes. His directorial ventures, such as “Satya,” “Company,” and “Sarkar,” have left an indelible mark on Indian cinema, earning him a loyal following.
As the political drama unfolds in Pithapuram, all eyes remain on Ram Gopal Varma and the potential implications of his entry into the electoral fray.
