Nagarjuna Contemplating Another Defamation Case Against Konda Surekha

Nagarjuna contemplating another defamation case against Konda Surekha.Nagarjuna Akkineni has taken a firm stance against the recent defamatory remarks made by Telangana political leader Konda Surekha, filing a Rs 100 crore defamation lawsuit against her. This follows the filing of a criminal defamation case earlier this week.

The controversy erupted after Surekha alleged that Telangana Minister KT Rama Rao (KTR) interfered in the relationship between Naga Chaitanya and Samantha Ruth Prabhu, leading to their divorce. She claimed KTR demanded Samantha be sent to him in exchange for sparing Nagarjuna's N-Convention Centre from demolition.

Speaking out against the allegations, Nagarjuna expressed his frustration, stating, "We filed a criminal defamation case yesterday. We are now pursuing another Rs 100 crore defamation lawsuit. Her outrageous comments cannot be ignored. She now says she is withdrawing her remarks and has apparently apologized to Samantha. But what about my family? Not a word of apology to me or to my family!"

Nagarjuna emphatically dismissed the possibility of withdrawing the lawsuit even if Surekha apologizes, stating, "No. Not at all. This is no longer personal. The slander has gone far beyond just me and my family. The support we've received from the Telugu industry, from the biggest to the smallest of names, has made me realize we are in the process of stemming the rot in our system. You can't use our names for political gains. We in the entertainment industry won't be soft targets anymore."

The scandal has sent shockwaves through the Telugu film industry, with prominent figures like Allu Arjun, Chiranjeevi, and Nani voicing their support for the Akkineni family and Samantha. This legal action serves as a strong message that the industry will no longer tolerate the exploitation of its members for political gain.
