Bangaluru, Sept 19: Sandalwood superstar Upendra, who had to move out of newly formed Karnataka Pragnyavantara Janata Paksha (KPJP) around six months ago, on Tuesday officially launched his ‘own’ Uttama Prajaakeeya Party (UPP) to mark his birth day.

As the acronym of the new political party – UPP – is similar to his nickname ‘Uppi’ and sensing the possibility of it turning out to be more about Upendra himself, the actor in a cinematic fashion let the ‘I’ burn out to say the party belonged to everyone.

Though the launch was a low-profile affair, the occasion coincided with his birthday. The party’s manifesto is based on concept of ART (Accountability, Responsibility, Transparency) of governance.

Mr. Upendra has launched UPP when the polls to the Lok Sabha are just eight months away. There was speculation that UPP will field its candidates.

Rumours are doing rounds that Upendra might contest from the Bengaluru South constituency in 2019 Lok Sabha polls as UPP candidate. However, he is yet to take a call, sources said.

“We have spent a lot of time in getting the party registered and launching it officially. We have not yet decided on whether to contest in Lok Sabha polls,” said Upendra adding that he was not power hungry.
