Chiranjeevi's biggest show in his career would be the post of MLA he has held for more than 200 days. The actor-turned-politician, who launched his own political party after bidding adieu to films, became the Member of Legislative Assembly for the Tirupathi constituency after winning with a slight margin, in the month of May.

Claiming to work for the cause of Samaikhya Andhra, the PRP legislator resigned from his post today. Hoping to ride on the anti-Telangana sentiment in Andhra and Rayalseema region, the head of the demoralised party called it quits, at last. He dramatically brandished the resignation letter in front of the media.

Following his sensational resignation, Telangana protesters assembled at the Jubilee Hills bhavan of PRP and shouted slogans against the leader.

The party was routed out in the recently held GHMC polls, winning just a seat. Its debut performance at the hustings was no good, with the party winning just two seats in the region in the Assembly elections held earlier in the year.
