Chiranjeevi asks Coca Cola to withdraw his Thums up ad

Telugu actor Chiranjeevi has requested the Coca Cola Company to withdraw the TV commercial, in which he testifies that 'Thums up' was a safe drink.

Responding to a request by 100 scientists of Andhra Pradesh, the famed actor had requested the company to withdraw the TV advertisement, “Jana Vignana Vedika” (JVV), a voluntary organisation working for developing scientific temperament among the people, claimed on Monday.

In a statement, JVV president V Lakshmana Reddy said the organisation had received a communication from Allu Aravind, noted film producer and brother-in-law of the star to this effect.

Lakshmana Reddy said Aravind had informed JVV that Chiranjeevi had urged the Coca Cola aerated drinks were banned in educational institutions in 14 states of the United States.

The governor of California and former Hollywood star Arnold Schwarznegger had also signed a legislation banning sale of aerated cool drinks in schools in his state, the scientist claimed.

Lakshmana Reddy said as Chiranjeevi, with his immense popularity could mould public opinion in favour of Thums up, the JVV had sent an appeal to him signed by 100 scientists to withdraw the commercial and he had responded positively, the statement added.
