For the first time after his foray into politics, Chiranjeevi on Tuesday faced hostile reception at a village near Warangal when eggs were thrown at him but the actor-turned-politician was unfazed.
Three persons, said to be activists of the Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS), were detained by police for allegedly hurling eggs at the megastar at Narsampet during his road show in the Telangana districts of Andhra Pradesh.
Chiranjeevi asserted that he was unfazed by the incident and nothing can deter him from moving on his path.
"I thank those who have thrown eggs. Incidents like this will not affect me. I will keep moving," he said. Chiranjeevi has been conducting road shows in the Telangana region since October 30 drawing huge crowds.
Though the Praja Rajyam Party founder said his party would support any move by the Centre for creation of Telangana state, the TRS, heading the statehood cause, has been insisting that he should give more clarity on his stand.
At some places during his tour, TRS activists waving their party flags tried to stop the actor's convoy.
Chiranjeevi has covered Karimnagar and Warangal districts and would move on to Khammam district, where the tour would conclude with a public meeting at Bhadrachalam.
