Political Story on YSR-CBN: Why So Much Debate?

Not often do we see political stories and content being made around top league politicians like YS Rajasekhar Reddy and Chandrababu Naidu. However, this vacuum has been filled by the recent SonyLIV original series Mayasabha.

This show is directed by extremely talented film maker Deva Katta and he has made sure that the political drama stands as the focal point of several discussions on social media.

In accordance with this, the director has added a lot of fiction to this story as he gave a romantic angle to Chandra Babu�s life and stated that a heroine who was previously with Babu later went out to become a leading actress.

On the other hand, it has been established that the fascination and naxalism movement in Andhra Pradesh got elevated further only after the YS Rajasekhar Reddy regime.

There is a lot of fiction added to these stories, and they have instantly grabbed their attention on social media with people debating on the actual facts that had happened.

However, Director Deva Katta had already made it clear that the political drama is clearly fictionalised order to make it more appealing to the audience. So he was very clear about his approach, right from the opening stages, and he execute what he really wanted.

However, the controversy now is about the kind of elements that were added into the live stories of Rajasekhar Reddy and Chandra Babu, which are beyond the factual scope.
