'Rajinikanth, Pawan are actors; We are activists'
- IndiaGlitz, [Thursday,June 29 2017]
Balladeer Gaddar has said in a statement that Pawan Kalyan and Rajinikanth are actors, while people like him work directly with people. The celebrated folk singer has made this statement in the context of meeting the two superstars as part of a South Indian Cultural Association endeavour.
To quote Gaddar, "I have met them to impress upon them the need to create political awareness regarding the discrimination against South Indians. This is no economic issue, but a political one".
"We are not actors, unlike those. We directly work with people. They (Rajini and Pawan) are great, but we can't impose anything on them," Gaddar has further said.
It has to be seen if Pawan, who has been raising the issue of "step-motherly" treatment towards South Indians, will join forces with Gaddar.
