In the public domain, Chiranjeevi had so far been beating around the bush over his political ambitions.

Within the four walls and amidst his close associates, Chiranjeevi, however, appears to be clearly stating that he has indeed marked the Chief Minister’s position as his target.

“I am into politics not for the sake of securing power or position but only to serve the people. I am their servant,” Chiranjeevi had been proclaiming ever since he declared his intention to quit the tinsel town and jump onto the political bandwagon.

The latest 9-minute-20-second video footage of the suspected “sting operation”, in which he interacts with the youngsters, revealed at least a part of the “neo-politician” Chiranjeevi’s mind.

“People say I joined politics with some vested interest. I may say no but everybody has some hope inside. But I am unable to guage what that hope is,” Chiranjeevi noted.

At that point, his audience pitches in with the suggestion that becoming the Chief Minister was his “hope.” “Don’t simply brush this thing aside when people say Chiranjeevi wants to become the CM. Just cut the topic,” the actor-turned-politician said.

Of course, he goes on to say that the well-being of the society at large could be his “hope.”
