Those who cannot be good husband and wife… How can they be good friends!?
Analyst: Nannuru Srinivasa Rao, (Senior Journalist, Nellore)
Konidela Kalyan Babu alias Pawan Kalyan – a person who was born in the Mega family, grew up as a hero with his own style without being in the shadow of his elder brother Chiranjeevi, and entered politics with that same image. Because he is in public life, his personal life is becoming a public discussion. Three marriages took place in Pawan’s life. Though they are his personal decisions, opponents, during elections, mentioned “three marriages” and criticised, “How can a person who cannot run a family run a state?” To that, Pawan in the Unstoppable show directly answered – “I did not marry three people at once, I married again only after divorce, my bonds broke due to lack of compatibility.” Telling the truth rather than hiding it became a plus for him.
The recent joint statement on the cancellation of the third marriage – “We will remain as friends, we will remain as good parents to children” – made everyone ask the same one question. Those who cannot be good husband and wife, how can they be good friends? In the husband-wife bond there are expectations, responsibilities, ego, in the friends’ bond they are less. That is why it is said that some people become good friends only after separation, but the million-dollar question is whether the maturity which was not there when they were husband and wife, will come after becoming friends? This did not have much impact on films – the audience comes to the theatre for his acting, for his screen image. On politics, three angles are seen – No impact, because however many criticisms came from 2014 to 2024, in the 2024 elections Janasena won with 100% strike rate, people vote not for Pawan’s marriage, but for his honesty, for his fight; Some impact will be there, because among youth, women voters some may question “Is Pawan not giving importance to family values?”; Sympathy will increase, because among fans sympathy increases thinking “Even being such a big star, even being Deputy CM, how many pains is he suffering in his personal life.” That means personal life comes up for discussion temporarily, but will not have a permanent impact.
If parents separate, fear and insecurity comes in children, when asked in school “Did your mother and father separate?” they cannot answer and feel embarrassed, when they grow up fear towards marriage develops, this is the same for any celebrity children. But when Pawan was unwell, Anna, who was born in Russia, grew up in foreign countries, born as a Christian, changing from Anna Lezhneva to Anna Konidela, went to Tirumala on foot and offered her hair – offering hair means giving up ego, praying “Swamy, take my ego, save my husband”, that is not religion, that is love. Why are those who loved so much separating? The answer is only one – Having love is different, living together is different. But in the last phase of life, for both, someone should be a companion and shade. At that age, suitable persons may not be there for them, how their living condition will be at that time is not known, it is difficult for anyone to predict the future in advance. By re-examining the decisions taken now and living, there is no doubt at all that marital bonds will be prestigious, strong, and ideal for society. If both can think on this one aspect, along with their respect increasing in society, they will be those who gave assurance to the future of children. Similarly, only when it is thought that their remaining life in the last phase of life will be happy, there will be no place for such meaningless discussions, analysis on personal inner life. Because Pawan Kalyan is in public life as a public representative, as Deputy CM, there is an opportunity to analyse this as a journalist in the angle of public life. When Pawan Kalyan is not in public life, it should be considered that there is no opportunity to analyse this. This analysis was written through the freedom of press obtained through the Constitution.

It should be considered that analysts have no intention either to curtail freedom of press through this analysis, or to damage anyone’s honour and reputation in the name of freedom of press. Please consider this analysis only to remove the misconceptions prevailing among them by bringing before the people the matters related to persons connected with public life.
