Not only people of two Telugu states but also entire nation got a huge shock when former AP CM, TDP chief Chandra Babu Naidu was arrested by AP cops in the Skills Development Scam and sent packing to the Rajamundry Central Jail. All the right thinking people started accusing the ruling YSRCP and CM Jagan of witchhunting though Jagan claimed that he was abroad when the arrest happened and he had no hand in it.

Chandra Babu is languising in jail and the hopes of him getting bail is getting delayed with every day. While all the political parties condemned the arrest. the silence of Young Tiger NTR over the entire issue shocked all. Many accused NTR of ditching his grand father Sr NTR's party in the dire circumstances for his personal rivalry against Chandra Babu. Many started abusing NTR for not showing loyalty towards the party and Nandamuri family though he claims that he is the Nandamuri torch bearer.

In the midst of all this, NTR maintained stoic silence and this is shocking everyone even more. Following this, Rajeev Kanakala, touted to be close friend of NTR opened on it and speculated as to why NTR might not have reacted on the entire issue. He said "NTR spent almost four years for the film 'RRR' with Rajamouli. Tarak, who lost the opportunity to do three or four films in the span of four years, is now working hard for the Pan India film ‘Devara’ with Koratala Siva. That’s why NTR is not in a position to care about other things now."

He said NTR shared him that if he wants to enter politics he should so lot of research to find out the ground reality and get to the terms and added that NTR told him that even experienced politicians will make lot of analysis before jumping into politics.
