I am not any psychiatrist or an expert in reading the minds but my common sense is making me understand what is happening in the mind of Pawan Kalyan. His abrupt antics are conveying something about what is going on in his head.
My analysis goes on a lighter note because I feel there is nothing serious to talk about this actor turned politician.
Let me share what I understand about his thought process.
Thought Process#1: It takes a lot of toil and effort to grow as a leader and increase credibility in the public. Then what can be grown with no effort? Yes, a long beard. It grows even when one sleeps. Let me grow a long beard and prove to the people that I too can grow something on par and more with Narendra Modi.
Thought Process#2: How to prove as a great leader? What the great leader of the nation Narendra Modi is doing? He has been doing many things right from handling the Indo-China crisis, dealing with pandemic issues, sensitizing people from time to time with captivating speeches and at last getting a photoshoot done in a lawn. So what is the easiest and effortless thing among them? Photoshoot. Yes, let me get a photoshoot in my lawn so that people understand that I am an able leader on par with the great leader of the nation today.
Thought Process#3: I have carried the image of Che Guvera for sometime. But majority people have voted for BJP and given power to Narendra Modi. He likes Hindutva. So let me look as Hindu as possible and do Chaturmasa Deeksha like never before, protest on issues related to Hindu temple aspects and use copper tumbler (mara chembu) like a saint or Rishi. By doing this, the people will understand that I am no less to Narendra Modi in the matter of saving Hindu Dharma.
Thought Process#4: Yogi Adityanath has become the Chief Minister being a Hindu priest. So, people are in the mood to elect priests. Let me project myself as a self proclaimed priest in near future.
Thought Process#5: When I read the book titled “Culture Matters”, people will understand that I am reading about Indian culture. They don’t bother who the authors are and what the book deals with. They will be in the trap that I am endorsing Sanatan Culture and I am hinting Bharatiya_Culture_Matters, like Ram Charan tweeted.
In Bhagavatam there is a character by the name Poundraka Vasudev. He foolishly believes the words of his friends who say he is God. He hates Lord Krishna, but imitates his dressing style including a peacock quill and a flute. For his selfish reasons, he proclaims that he is as powerful as Krishna just by changing the costume. Finally Lord Krishna himself puts a full stop to this character.
For some reasons, I recall many features of Poundraka Vasudev while observing Pawan Kalyan these days.
