Eminent writer, director and actor Posani Krishna Murali has turned politician by formally joining Chiranjeevi's Praja Rajyam today. Posani carved a distinct identity for himself in the Telugu film industry, making films that carry rare and yet interesting themes that feature unique lead roles. The filmmaker recently turned hero with 'Mental Krishna'. Posani now joins the long list of filmmakers who have turned politicians.
 
In the presence of the Praja Rajyam Party leader Chiranjeevi, Posani formally joined the party.
 
'PRP's ideals have inspired me to take the plunge into politics' said a visibly happy Posani.
