Posani Krishna Murali, a prominent figure in Telugu cinema known for his successful films, entered politics but faced challenges that tarnished his reputation. Initially with the Praja Rajyam party, he later switched allegiance to YS Jagan Mohan Reddy’s YSRCP, where his outspoken criticism of political rivals and fellow actors, including Nara Chandra Babu Naidu and Megastar Chiranjeevi, drew controversy.
Despite a career that once included roles alongside Pawan Kalyan and Chiranjeevi, his outspoken remarks and contentious language in press conferences led to a decline in offers from the film industry. Recently appointed by Jagan to a role in the AP Film Development Corporation, his focus remained on political criticism rather than industry development. With recent political shifts in Andhra Pradesh, observers speculate on the future of Posani’s career in both cinema and politics.
