No, YS Rajashekara Reddy is not acting in any movie. Nor is he playing the role of Lord Venkatewara Swamy in any play. This is the impression gathered by the visitors who throng to his office at the Secretariat every day.

The number of visitors to his office is growing by the day and this has made his peshi to adopt a novel approach. The visitors which include MPs, MLAs and other top politicians as well as commoners are made to stand in a queue. The CM YS Rajashekara Reddy stands at the entrance of the hall and the visitors are made to move in front of him.

The people get a brief audience 9darshan) of the CM. They hand over their representations to him which he then hands over to his personal staff even without looking at them. He just stands there with folded hands and a smile on his face. All this reminds the visitors of the Maha Laghu Darshan at the famous lord Venkateswara Swamy temple at Tirumala.
