While it is an established fact that Nandamuri Balakrishna has the bloodline of the legendary Sr NTR, his political connections have hit a new peak now. In fact, Balayya can be called the most "connected" politician in the Telugu land.
Firstly, Balayya's father Sr NTR is the late chief minister of erstwhile AP and founder of Telugu Desam which has been relevant in Telugu politics for the last 4 decades and is one of the oldest regional parties in the country.
Then, Balayya's brother-in-law Chandrababu Naidu is the current chief minister of Andhra Pradesh and this is his fourth tenure. Balayya's sister, Daggubati Purandeswhari is a sitting MP and she is the president of the Andhra Pradesh BJP wing.
Coming to the next generation, both of Balayya's sons-in-law are holding positions of power. While Lokesh is a sitting MLA and the future leader of TDP, the other SIL, Bharath won the Vizag parliament by a huge margin this year.
As a result, Balayya has a gun politician at every level of his family tree and luckily for him, his grandson Nara Devansh might also become a next-gen leader of TDP one day. Perhaps no other politician has such a vast politically successful family tree.
