Telugu actor Nagarjuna Akkineni, father of actor Naga Chaitanya, has lodged a complaint against Telangana minister Konda Surekha after she made defamatory and derogatory comments regarding his son’s divorce from actress Samantha Ruth Prabhu.
The Telangana minister sparked controversy on Wednesday after she accused Bharat Rashtra Samithi leader KT Rama Rao of engineering Naga Chaitanya and Samantha’s separation. Surekha claimed that Rao lured Samantha into drug addiction and later blackmailed her.
“It was KT Rama Rao who caused Samantha’s divorce. He was a minister at the time and tapped the phones of actresses to exploit their weaknesses. He turned them into drug addicts. Everyone knows this… it’s no secret,” she alleged.
Nagarjuna, in his complaint filed in Hyderabad’s Nampally district, accused Congress leader Konda Surekha of deliberately spreading false allegations, fully aware of their untruth, with the sole aim of tarnishing his personal, professional, and family reputation.
“The statement was made with malicious intent, designed to convey falsehoods to the public at large, with the purpose of harming the complainant and his family’s reputation for political gain and sensationalism,” the complaint stated. It further emphasised that “these actions constitute a criminal offence.”
“I strongly condemn the comments of the Honorable Minister Mrs. Konda Surekha. Don’t use the lives of movie stars who stay away from politics to criticize your opponents. Please respect other people’s privacy. As a woman in a responsible position, your comments and accusations against our family are completely irrelevant and false. I request you to withdraw your comments immediately,” Nagarjuna said Wednesday in a post on X.
This is the second legal notice that the Congress leader has received regarding her remarks. KT Rama Rao has also issued a defamation notice, accusing her of engaging in “disgusting and nauseating politics,” and calling for action from her party leader, Rahul Gandhi.
Surekha’s comments have sparked significant controversy, as both Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Naga Chaitanya are prominent actors. Naga Chaitanya, a member of the influential Akkineni family in the Telugu film industry, and Samantha have both responded sharply to the politician’s remarks.
Reacting to the Minister’s remarks, Samantha said that her divorce was amicable, with no political conspiracy involved.
“My divorce is a personal matter, and I request that you refrain from speculating about it. Our choice to keep things private doesn’t invite misrepresentation. Could you [Surekha] please keep my name out of political battles? I have always remained non-political and wish to do so,” she said.
“I hope you realise that your words carry significant weight as a minister,” the Family Man 2 actor said.
Her ex-husband, Chaitanya, took to X to share that their divorce was a mutual decision considering the difference in their life goals.
“However, there have been various baseless and completely ridiculous gossip on the matter so far. I have remained silent all this while out of deep respect for my earlier spouse as well as my family. Today, the claim made by Konda Surekha garu is not only false but also absolutely ridiculous and unacceptable. Women deserve to be supported and respected. Taking advantage and exploiting the personal life decisions of celebrities for the sake of media headlines is shameful,” he said in a post on X.
Actor turned politician Govinda released an audio clip thanking his fans for their blessings, hours after he landed in Mumbai hospital due to a bullet injury on his leg. The actor suffered the injury below his knee which his licensed gun misfired.
In the audio clip, the 60-year-old actor is heard saying that the blessings of his fans, parents and his guru saved him. He added that he was hit by a bullet, but it has been extracted. He also extended gratitude to the doctors.
Reports said that the actor suffered the injury around 4.45 am today when he was getting ready to leave for the airport to board a flight to Kolkata. The actor, also a Shiv Sena leader, was alone at the time of the incident.

After the incident, the actor called up his wife Sunita Ahuja, who was in Kolkata, and his manager. Soon after, the police reached his Juhu home and rushed him to the nearby Criticare Hospital.
Later, the actor’s manager said his condition is stable. The actor is still at the hospital and his daughter Tina is with him. The police said that the actor has not registered any complaint.
Shashi Sinha said that they had a 6 am flight for a show in Kolkata and he had reached the airport. He added that the actor was about to leave his residence for the airport when this accident happened. He further expressed that it is due to God’s grace that Govinda sustained only a leg injury and it was nothing serious. Reportedly, Govinda’s wife Sunita Ahuja left for Mumbai after she heard of the incident.
A prominent YouTuber, Ranveer Allahbadia, reacted after his YouTube channel, BeerBiceps, got hacked on Wednesday night. He has become the latest victim of the cyber attack.
Hackers took control of his YouTube channels, renaming them with references to “Tesla” and “Trump” before erasing most of his content. This incident resembles the recent hacking of India’s Supreme Court YouTube channel.
The attackers modified the name of BeerBiceps to “@Elon.trump.tesla_live2024” and his personal channel to “@Tesla.event.trump_2024.” After the takeover, they removed all of his podcasts and interviews, replacing them with older event streams featuring Elon Musk and Donald Trump.
YouTube has since taken down the hacked channels, displaying the message, “This page isn’t available.”
Allahbadia, initially in Singapore but later confirmed to be in Mumbai, has not released an official statement regarding the hacking. However, he indirectly addressed the issue on Instagram. He posted a picture of a meal, writing, “Celebrating my two main channels being hacked with my favorite food. Vegan burgers. Death of BeerBiceps met with Death of diet.”
In a subsequent post, he shared a selfie with an eye mask, captioned, “Is this the end of my YouTube career? Was nice knowing you all.”
Ranveer Allahbadia began his content creation journey at 22 with the launch of BeerBiceps. Over the years, he expanded his digital presence, managing seven YouTube channels with around 12 million subscribers collectively. His content has built a loyal audience through motivational talks, lifestyle advice, fitness tips, and interviews with high-profile personalities.
Throughout his career, Allahbadia has interviewed notable figures across various industries, including sports icons, Bollywood stars, influential personalities, and international figures.
While there has been no official word from Allahbadia regarding the recovery of his channels, the incident shines a light on the growing concerns about cybersecurity risks faced by content creators and public figures on digital platforms.
