It was Raj Kapoor the SHOWMAN of Indian Film Industry, who opened the doors for the family legacy. Although Pruthvi Raj Kapoor (father of RK) was in Indian Theatre (touring talkies), Raj Kapoor at the age of 24 made Awara and initiated the golden era in Bollywood. In one of the songs in Shree 420, his three kids walk for the first time on silver screen (Rain Song b/w Raj Kapoor & Nargis) making way for star kids to follow their parents footsteps. Today the only qualification for a movie hero is to have a father, grandfather or family member in the industry. Common / General public like you & me should get used to these actors and over a period of time we digest them into our systems as HEROS & STARS. At this rate I highly doubt at least in the near future can we expect one from us to become Amitabh Bachan, Rajnikanth, Chiranjeevi or Mamooty. Having legacy is one thing, but having TWO SUPERSTARS from the same legacy is a very rare phenomena (Like Bush Sr & Jr became US presidents).. Chiranjeevi & Kalyan are those rare people who are blessed to have such mass hysteria around them and retain their cumulative supreme positions from 1983 till 2016 (and still counting). No other family enjoys this fate. They are truly blessed ones. Name, Fame, Money - Many celebrities are making, but the one thing these two have is the strength of a huge fan base which is structured, disciplined & unconditional (they have donated blood, eyes and blindly followed their leader's instable political ideas). Chiru cheated fans by merging his party into the corrupt congress. But FANS never cheated him. PK did crazy stuff as per his unpredictable mood swings like Common Man Protection Force & then Jena Sena (which till today has no party cadre, no agenda), but PK cult following never diminished. It is better late than never that both these stars realized that the secret to retain on top is the consolidation of the fans and making them feel happy (irrespective of ideological differences). TODAY finally after a gap of 4-5 years of coldwar, the brothers openly praised each other to make a feast for the poor fans who have nothing but blind hero worship & unconditional admiration for their on scree historians. Nagababu's honest & factual screaming at PK fans during Chiru's 60th b'day did not go well with many PK fans. It clearly reflected for Brucelee premiers and openings across the 2 states. Likewise Chiru fan associations trying to distance themselves with PK fans too is of no benefit. Unless the brothers are together you cannot make all FANS come to one platform .i.e MEGA FRATERNITY. Irrespective of the SGS trailer & songs, it was a feast to see Chiru & PK together. A pure delight ! Highlights : 1. Chiru & PK together on stage with selfie being the icing on the cake 2. Chiru's rugged look was ultimate. 3. Chiru's body language & speech (none can match his public conduct). 4. PK entry (complete mass euphoria). Chiru stooping to impress DSP for a chance to talk to him was a pinch of salt for die hard mega fans who have been loyal to him from 80s  But apart from that we as Mega & PK fans had a feast...United we stand and divided we fall is apt for admirers / fans of this great iconic star legacy !!!
