Jayaprada has been hinting at returning to Andhra Pradesh politics ever since she was expelled from the Samajwadi Party on February 2, 2010, for supporting Amar Singh.
She and Amar floated a new political outfit - Rashtriya Lok Manch - in July 2011, but his illness and subsequent political oblivion left her at the crossroads.
Jayaprada made her political debut with the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) in 1994 following an invitation from N.T. Rama Rao.
