Ramcharan and Vinayak's combination flick 'Naayak' released yesterday to excellent crowds has gone down into a contorversy. As per story and screenplay, a comedy villain character of Rahul Dev is named as Gandi Babji in movie. This role is just used only to become a buffoon in the hands of Ramcharan and gives extra humor to exact plot. However, one of the ex-MLAs of Congress from Visakhapatnam district whose name is also Gandi Babji is extremely uspet with usage of his name and that too for a villain character.
When Babji threatened to put up a legal fight for banning the 'Naayak,' director Vinayak came forward with apologies requesting the politician. 'We do not have any intention to hurt anybody. Co-incidence of that character's name was just accidental and not intentional. I apologize, if any of the followers of Babjee garu are hurt,' Vinayak said.
