A young unfamiliar Telugu heroine (name hidden) on Tuesday filed a police complaint alleging that she was sexually assaulted by a film director and hero.
Director Chalapathi and hero Srujan reportedly took her to Bhimavaram for scouting locations while working on a film. They insisted her to join them on car even though she wanted to travel by train. They started touching her inappropriately and even hit her when she protested. Complainant also said they tried to rape her by pushing on the backseat.
‘I was very lucky because the car collided with a lorry and I was able to escape from the spot. Later, both hero and director rendered apologies but at the same time blackmailed me not to file a Police case,’ the actress further said.
Director Chalapathi Rao is taken into police custody while actor Srujan is on the run. Anyways, the actress identity is kept under wraps.
