HYDERABAD: A swank new office building whose interiors would match any top notch corporate office will now be the headquarters of Chiranjeevi’s party.

Tucked away in a far corner of the posh Jubilee Hills, the office was thrown open at the dead of night on Sunday with a close circle of the film actor’s family and friends attending the ceremony. Family members present included brothers K. Nagendra Babu, Pawan Kalyan, brother-in-law Allu Arvind, close confidantes Dr. Mitra and Dr. Vinay and the administrators including former IAS officer and former Amalapuram MP, K.S.R. Murthy. Other exclusive invitees were Narsapur MP Ch. Hari Rama Jogaiah and former Minister in the TDP regime, Kotagiri Vidyadhar Rao.

It is not not clear whether this will be the hub of other organisational activities too.

The building with a single-floor and electric fencing has a carpet area of 5,000 square feet is blend of eye-pleasing interiors. Everywhere, there are laminated boards with famous words from Swami Vivekananda, Mother Teresa, Mahatma Gandhi, Rabindranath Tagore, Chandrasekhar Azad and former president A.P.J. Abdul Kalam.

Special cabins

An exclusive ‘peep’ into the premises revealed cabins for the actor, his brothers Nagendra Babu and Pawan Kalyan and brother-in-law Allu Aravind, a conference room and a meeting hall .to accommodate about 80 people, a record room, a kitchenette and staff rooms. The office was thrown open by the actor at a ‘muhurat’ that suited Chiranjeevi’s astrological chart. Many of those in the actor’s close circle appeared to be unaware of the timing of this event till the last minute.

Chiranjeevi revealed nothing much to the media about his plans apart from promising to convene a press conference and talk more then.
