No politics! Says Mahesh Babu

Well it's election time and the speculation over Megastar Chiranjeevi's political entry seems to have split the film industry wide open.

With the Nandamuri family throwing their weight behind Chandrababu Naidu, the atmosphere in Tollywood is politically charged.

With a Mahesh Babu Fan association announcing grand weeklong birthday celebrations starting August 9, a fresh set of suppositions over Mahesh Babu's political affiliations were triggered.

But the actor has chosen to distance himself from the spotlight and reiterated that he is not going to support any political party in the coming elections and that he is firmly focused on acting.

He went to the extent of cautioning his supporters to use their individual discretion to exercise their right to vote and not let the activities of his fan associations influence them in the least. Must say that is very responsible of the reticent star. Bravo Mahesh!
