Akash aka Jai Akash stole the hearts of Telugu movie lovers with his debut film Anandam. He went on to become Lover Boy and starred in films like Neeto Cheppalani, Manasuto etc.
Recently he made shocking allegations that Puri Jagannadh, Ram's iSmart Shankar story belongs to him. Now speaking to scribes, he made startling allegations saying star comedian Sunil insulted and crushed his career.
He said, "In Piluste Palukuta, I played the lead role and Sunil as my friend character. Sunil asked me whether I will do special role in a film in which he is doing the lead role. I agreed thinking that it will be positive one. When I was shooting for a Tamil movie Sundara Bhooshan under Super good Films banner in Nellore, he called me and said you should do this role since you promised me. When I remarked that the role is not that good, he promised me to develop the role. Since I gave my word, I left my film in Tamil and came here."
Akash continued saying," During Andala Ramudu shooting, Sunil came to me said said 'Chetulu Kaaavu Kaallu anoko bhayya. I will not forget your help in my life. But after the film release, he did not speak about me in the promos and did not release even a poster with my photo. How do I feel when I starred in the film leaving a film in which I was the lead. When he did Nava Vasantham with me, he insulted me. Till that time who used to call me 'Bhayya' started calling me 'Eye Akash'. I was hurt after coming to know the behavior of Sunil. When I asked director why my role was not developed, he told me, Sunil asked him not to do so."
He further said, "My film Ishtapadi which has the potential to succeed at the box office didn't get the release date. My film with Muthyala Subbiah 'Idem Ooru Ra Babu', 'Akasam' directed by Tamil filmmaker Vikrama and 'June July' were stalled. Attempts has been made to crush Me since the past 18 years. They just don't want Me to continue as Hero."
But, many wonder why Akash id making such allegations against Telugu actors and filmmakers now.
