February 15, 2024

In addition to his successful film career, Chiranjeevi entered politics, driven by his commitment to social welfare and community service.

In 2008, Chiranjeevi founded the Praja Rajyam Party, which later merged into the Indian National Congress in 2011.

He served as the Minister of Tourism with independent charge from October 2012 to May 2014, contributing to the development of the tourism sector.

He is currently not active in politics, as his tenure as a Rajya Sabha member ended in April 2018.

He founded the Chiranjeevi Charitable Trust in 1998, which operates blood and eye banks.

The CCT blood bank collected over 9,30,000 units of blood; 79% of the units were donated to the needy for free, while the rest went to corporate hospitals for a small fee.

The Chiranjeevi Charitable Foundation's new facility, inaugurated by former President Abdul Kalam in 2006, continues to serve the community through various initiatives.

In 2018, Chiranjeevi participated in the Green Challenge, promoting environmental conservation.

During the COVID-19 pandemic in 2021, he set up oxygen banks and ambulances, providing vital assistance to those in need.

Recognised for his exceptional contributions, he received the Padma Bhushan in 2006 and the Padma Vibhushan in 2024, two of India's highest civilian awards.
