Prakash Raj sparks new controversy, calls actor and politician Pawan Kalyan 'chameleon' on national television

Actor Prakash Raj has sparked a new controvesy by calling Jana Sena leader Pawan Kalyan a “chameleon" on national television. The Singham actor made the comment during his interview with  Telugu news channel TV9. The reporter asked Prakash Raj what does he think about Pawan Kalyan's political moves and support to BJP.  To this, he replied saying he is disappointed and further stated, "I really don't understand what happened to him, I'm very disappointed. You (Pawan Kalyan) are a leader by yourself, you have a party (Jana Sena), I wonder why you are looking up/pointing at another leader." Commenting further on actor's changing political moves, Prakash Raj said, "If he is changing three-four times, isn't he a chameleon (Oosaravelli)?." Prakash Raj also suggested that Pawan Kalyan should join the BJP instead of riding on its shoulders, while stating that the BJP needs 1000 births before rivalling KCR. 

However, Pawan's brother Nagababu who is also an actor, responded strongly to Prakash Raj. He said that every useless person is criticising Jana Sena leader Pawan Kalyan, while stating that there are "larger interests" and party's interests lie in Jana Sena supporting the BJP in GHMC elections.Nagababu also said that he understood Prakash Raj's political oscillation when he failed to answer BJP leader Subramany Swamy in a debate. He has also asked Prakash Raj to be a good human before criticising an "unselfish leader" like Pawan Kalyan, while accusing him of harassing cinema producers for money.  On the work front, there are reports that Prakash Raj has come on board for Vishal and Arya's 'Enemy'. Prakash Raj is expected to join the team by the first week of December. After wrapping up the Chennai schedule, the team will shift their camp to Ooty. Mrinalini Ravi plays Vishal's pair in the film and Karunakaran also plays a pivotal role.
