Bengaluru: Sandalwood actor Sudeep alias Namma Kichcha Sudeep has a breakfast meeting with Janata Dal (Secular) state president H.D. Kumaraswamy, Anitha Kumaraswamy, Nikhil Kumar and Sa. Ra. Mahesh on Monday.
This is interesting in the context of his uncle Sarovar Srinivas and one-time ardent supporter of former Prime Minister H.D. Deve Gowda recently joining the Congress, along with his friend M.C. Nanaiah and B. Ramakrishna, allegedly frustrated over the treatment meted out to them.
A release from the party said that Sudeep met Kumaraswamy and the two-hour discussion pertained to politics and cinema.
A few days ago, Sudeep invited Kumaraswamy to his house for lunch and discussed the same issues. Interestingly, all the three major political parties had tried to pull Sudeep to their side with an intention of fielding him from Molakalmuru constituency, Chitradurga district. But Sudeep, who decided to maintain his distance from all the three of them, had reserved his right to campaign for any candidate of his choice, regardless of party affiliations.
