The fan feeling for a star hero touches the peaks at many places but these days you tend to be rather sensible and mature about having rivalries. During the 1990s the scene was quite different and in fact there were many fan wars happening across the Telugu states.
Things used to get violent as well but eventually everything cooled down. Now, after so many years the past heat has bounced back. This is the clash between fans of megastar Chiranjeevi and Nandamuri Natasimham Balakrishna as the Sankranthi releases happened.
Buzz is that in Pulivendula, Balayya’s flexis were torn by unknown miscreants which led to a tense atmosphere. Similarly, flexis of megastar Chiranjeevi and slain Kapu leader Vangaveeti Ranga were torn which led to a major chaos. The way things are happening now is reminding many of the 90s era atmosphere.
