Nagarjuna has filed a complaint with the police against the Minister of State, Konda Surekha, on reckless statements concerning the Akkineni family. The veteran actor has approached both criminal and defamation courts against the minister by citing the remarks as baseless and damaging to the reputation of his family. This is the first time a sharp turn has taken place in the gathering controversy, which has drawn public attention.
The Allegations
The row started when Minister Konda Surekha made derogatory remarks in public against the Akkineni family. What was far more damaging, according to Nagarjuna, is that the statements were not only false but also maligned the family’s reputation in the film world and elsewhere in society. He believes that the minister had no valid evidence on this and merely wanted to smear the family’s name.
Legal Action by Nagarjuna
Nagarjuna has chosen legal actions following the accusations on these counts. He has filed a criminal complaint against Konda Surekha, wherein she made defamatory remarks against him. In addition to this criminal complaint, Nagarjuna has filed a case for damages suffered in light of a defamation suit.
The actor says that he is taking this matter seriously and will not let this kind of irresponsible statements be spoken against his family members. Public icons must also exercise responsibility and get themselves involved in spreading baseless rumors which is prevailing nowadays with the advent of fast media.
