He was found greeting everyone present in the first rows one by one, taking each one’s name. Especially Brahmi was found enthusiastically chatting away with the CM. <br /> What attracted many was his humility when he<br /> was offered to sit. There was a special chair for him to sit; a very special one from others. But Naidu gestured them to take away that special chair and immediately a common chair like the one cine fraternity is sitting on is kept in that place. Refusing special treatment attracted the onlookers and once again audiences were bowled over by CBN’s humility. <br /> Megastar Chiranjeevi was found sitting beside the CM and explaining him the ongoing proceedings on stage. Though both the leaders belong to different parties, the common cause made them exchange warmth and once again reiterated that no ideological differences can take precedence when it comes to extending helping hands for the people who are in need. Humanity speaks in such occasions. Naidu showed that when one has that commitment to join hands, that oneness is <b>‘Memu Saitham’. </b></div>
