The Telugu actor will campaign for the health minister Sudhakar in his Chikkaballpur constituency on Friday, where there is a significant number of Telugu speakers.
K Sudhakar said, “Sri Brahmanandam, a well-known comedian of Telugu film industry, will campaign for the BJP today in Chikkaballapur assembly constituency.” Brahmanandam will campaign at three different locations in the Chikkaballapur area on Friday.
