Can you try something like (I have not tried but seems may work)- 

Instead of -
<apex:inputField value="{!cc.test1__c}" id="textpop"    rendered="{!picklst}"/>

Try this - 
<apex:inputField value="{!cc.test1__c}" id="textpop"    rendered="{!IF(CONTAINS(cc.multipicklist__c,cc.test1__c),TRUE,FALSE)}"/>
or its equivalent - 
<apex:inputField value="{!cc.test1__c}" id="textpop"    rendered="{!CONTAINS(cc.multipicklist__c,cc.test1__c)}"/>

Also, if it does not work (because cc.multipicklist__c is of type Object and not String) try storing the values in some String properties (String str1 having the value of cc.multipicklist__c) and using them on the page directly. If it works, you may also get rid of the redundant method created for these checks.

Hi Force,

Below is the sample code which dynamically changes the field values according to the picklist selections

In this link you can create a text box

Use an <apex:actionSupport> component to rerender the panel/block containing the picklist and textbox.
Have a boolean in controller to use in rendered attribute.
Multi-Picklists return results in semi-colon separated values like - abc;xyz;pqr
Split the value on ; character and do the checks using String contains method in the controller.
