With the political elections arriving next year, the parties are leaving no stone unturned to attract maximum votes and they are taking the aid of the film stars too to get power. And now it looks like even 'Prince' Mahesh Babu cannot stay away from it and he has his own reasons for that.
Mahesh is actually known to be a private person and keeps the media at a mile but then the story goes that his father was awarded a land by the government many years ago which gave rise to the Padmalaya Studios. Later, they applied for an extension wherein they got an additional 5 acres for a throw away price with the condition that it should never be disposed.
However, the real estate boom and the greed of making money got the better of the Gattamaneni family and it is heard that they sold the five acres to an organization for a whopping 200 crores. This is a gross violation of the rules and now the Congress is said to be using this as the pawn to rope in Mahesh for their canvassing else face the consequences. Reports say that Mahesh has already given his primary nod to save the Rs 200 Cr and it is only a matter of right time before the announcement would be made. That is the essence of grapevine that is in circulation now.
