Chiranjeevi assured that he would focus on Andhra Pradesh even while giving due importance to tourism projects in other states of the country.

He said he would take initiatives to develop Kuchipudi village as an important national tourist destination. "The village requires better infrastructure to become a tourist destination," Chiranjeevi said. Kuchipudi village in Krishna district is famous for it's here the classical dance form by the same name originated. "The Kuchipudi classical dance has not received sufficient importance due to lack of marketing and publicity," he said.

Speaking to reporters after a day-long visit to the city, Chiranjeevi observed that lack of proper infrastructure, transport connectivity and unavailability of hygienic food were putting off international tourists from visiting the state. He said that the Centre would soon prepare a blueprint for providing basic infrastructure such as cottages, transport link, hotels and safety to the visitors at tourist destinations.
