Ever since Vijay Devarakonda-Puri Jagannadh's high-budget film Liger bombed at the box office, pressure increased from various quarters on Puri Jagannath to compensate the buyers for the losses. With nothing coming out of it, the buyers planned to stage a dharna in front of Puri Jagannath's house. This turned Puri furious and warned that he would never compensate those who sit on dharna in front of his house.
Now with the controversy increasing further, Puri Jagannath approached cops seeking police protection. He filed a complaint against Warangal Sreenu and financier G.Sobhan Babu for allegedly threatening and blackmailing him. In his complaint, Puri Jagannath mentioned that he is currently staying in Mumbai and requested cops to provide security to his family who is residing in Hyderabad.
It has to be seen whether this Liger dispute heads to and how it will be resolved by all those parties associated with them.
