Bengaluru, Dec 29: Popular sandalwood actor 'Abhinaya Chakravarthi' Kichcha Sudeep will join politics and contest in the coming elections on Congress ticket, as per the news that is being making waves in the political circles of the state.

According to reliable sources, Actor turned politician Ramya, who is the in charge of social media sites of All India Congress Committee (AICC), has had discussions with Sudeep. Ramya and Sudeep who have shared the screen together in movies like 'Ranga SSLC' and 'Mussanje Maathu' are said to be good friends even now.

It is learnt that Ramya has invited Kichcha to join the Congress party. Sources have also confirmed that Ramya has had discussions with the actor of giving party ticket to contest from Molakalmuru constituency in Chitradurga, as it is a reserved constituency, and Sudeep belongs to the 'Nayak' community. However, the reaction of Sudeep to the request of Ramya is not available as of now.

A few days earlier, Sudeep met chief minister (CM) Siddaramaiah and discussed about the issue of shifting of Vishnu memorial. He had told the media then, the reason why he had met the CM. When he was questioned about his joining politics on that occasion, he had just smiled and waved at the scribes without giving any response.

As Sudeep did not clarify his stand on joining the politics, the news about his joining the Congress party and contesting elections is making rounds in political circles. The rumours will end only if Kichcha clarifies his stand on this issue.
