However, the absence of 'RRR' star Jr NTR, who is the grandson of former Chief Minister and TDP founder N. T. Rama Rao, was notable. 

The brother of Chandrababu Naidu's wife Bhuvaneshwari, Nandamuri Balakrishna's presence on stage came just days after he faced criticism for pushing actress Anjali during a pre-release event of a film.

The event also witnessed heartwarming movements and controversy. Prime Minister Narendra Modi held the hands of the actor-turned-politician brothers Chiranjeevi- Pawan Kalyan and brought them to the centre of the stage and applauded their role in the elections. In another incident, a video of Amit Shah pointing fingers at Tamilisai on stage with a dramatic expression also went viral on social media.
