TTD board chairman and member posts are highly respected especially among affluent individuals who seek the status they confer. The interest spans from major industrialists to political leaders.
Following the Telugu Desam Party's rise to power, the previous TTD board was dissolved, and a new one has yet to be appointed, though an executive and an additional executive officer have been assigned.
Rumors suggest a media head might be named chairman, though it's unconfirmed.
Keeping the Chairman post aside, from Tollywood, producer Ashwani Dutt and director Raghavendra Rao are prominent contenders for TTD Board Member. They are trying seriously for this as per sources.
Other names like Vishwaprasad, Nagababu and Trivikram are also mentioned from Janasena side, though it is not known if they are seriously trying.
However, with numerous applicants, including MLAs and those with ties to Telangana, Tamil Nadu and North India, it's uncertain if Tollywood figures will secure TTD positions.
Already a source said that Chandrababu implied that it is not possible to accommodate Tollywood faces as TTD Board Members, since there is huge demand from several MLAs and alliance forces.
