In Balakrishna's 'Top Hero', There is a song with lyrics 'Beedilu Thagandi Babulu, Thagi Swargganni Cherandi Babulu'. If you feel the actor has endorsed Cigar product just as per the character requirement, Then you are mistakenâ¦!
In a recent interview, Balayya revealed: 'I smoke one homemade cigar (chutta) every day to stay healthy & for keeping my throat in good condition'. He then reminded about an age old saying 'Amrutham Chukka Bhumi Midhiki Raali Pogaku Chettuga Puttindhiâ¦.Poga Thagani Vaadu Marujanmalo Dunnapothu Ayi Pudathadu'.
When expressed shock over the revelation, Balakrishna commented Dhrutharastrudu lost vision as he don't smoke and Dasarath don't have children because he imposed a ban on tobacco. He told Sri Krishna lost Jarasandudu and Pandu Raju suffered from a disease due to the same reasons. Lastly, He described Cigar as a boon to mankind.
At the time Governments were warning people against use of tobacco products, Balakrishna being an public representative is enforcing them. How fare is it?
