While speaking at the event, Ram Charan gave a heartfelt message. He said,”I’d like to thank our state’s Chief Minister Revanth Reddy, my brother Vijay Deverakonda, Dil Raju, Pullela Gopichand, and everyone present here. A warm welcome to all the friends who have joined us today.”
He remembered his school days, saying, “Watching this event unfold brings back memories. I used to attend similar awareness programs back in school. It’s truly nostalgic. I’m very grateful to the Telangana Government and the Honorable Chief Minister for organizing such a meaningful awareness campaign under the ‘Rising Telangana’ initiative and for inviting all of us to be a part of it.”
Ram Charan expressed his concern about how children today are being unknowingly exposed to dangerous substances. He said, “A few years ago, we saw in the news how drastically things have changed. I remember buying soda and popsicles at my school. Today, it’s heartbreaking to hear that in those same places, children are unknowingly consuming harmful substances in pursuit of a temporary high.”
He also highlighted how drug issues have grown into serious organized crimes. He added, “Many of you may recall the protests in 2015. This issue has now grown into an organized crime network and that’s deeply alarming. Back then, I wasn’t a parent. But today, as a father homeschooling his daughter, the thought of sending her out to school fills me with anxiety.”
He explained the importance of finding happiness in good activities. He said, “Like many have said, it’s about chasing the right kind of high and getting a good workout, film shoot, playing in the evening and spending time with family that’s the real high… scoring well in exams, playing games with friends, spending evenings with loved ones, as Gopichand said that’s the true high.”
Finally, he gave a strong message: “We must protect our families, our friends, and our schools. That’s what truly matters… Let’s all come together to support the Rising Telangana initiative and be active participants in this movement. I sincerely appreciate the Telangana Police Department for taking this issue seriously. Let’s all stand united and become soldiers in this fight.”
