What did Konda Surekha say?
Telangana's Forests Minister Konda Surekha on Wednesday triggered a massive row after allegations against Bharat Rashtra Samithi leader KT Rama Rao and linking him with the divorce of actors Naga Chaitanya and Samantha Ruth Prabhu. Launching a scathing attack on KT Rama Rao, son of former Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao, Surekha said he was the reason why many actresses left the film industry and married early. She went on to say that KT Rama Rao blackmailed film personalities after getting them addicted to drugs.
Her controversial statements brought sharp criticism from Naga Chaitanya's father, veteran Telugu actor Nagarjuna Akkineni, who said her statements were "completely irrelevant and false" and demanded that she withdraw them.
Sam and Chai bashed the minister
Both Samantha and Chaitanya took to their social media profiles on Wednesday itself to post about their anger at the remark. While The Family Man 2 actor asked Konda to stop politicising her divorce. Chai called it a mutual decision
