Samantha and Naga Chaitanya: Samantha Ruth Prabhu, one of South's top actresses, and her ex-husband Naga Chaitanya are in the news these days for their past personal life.
Telangana Forest Minister Konda Surekha has recently given a controversial statement regarding Naga Chaitanya and Samantha Ruth Prabhu, on which the controversy seems to be increasing. Konda Surekha held KT Rama Rao responsible for the divorce of Naga Chaitanya and Samantha Ruth Prabhu. Now Naga Chaitanya's father and actor Nagarjuna Akkineni has reacted to Konda Surekha's statement.
The matter escalated so much that eventually other stars also expressed their opinion and the minister also had to withdraw his statement.
The minister withdrew his statement
Congress Minister Konda Surekha has withdrawn her statement on the divorce of Samantha and Naga. The minister says that what I said was not meant. My intention was not to hurt Samantha, I just raised questions on the disrespect of women.
Apart from this, Konda termed Surekha's allegations as frivolous and false.
Veteran actor Nagarjuna shared a tweet about this on Twitter and said, “I strongly condemn the comments of Honorable Minister Smt. Konda Surekha. Don't use the lives of film stars who stay away from politics to criticize your opponents. Respect people's privacy. As a woman holding a responsible position, your comments and allegations against our family are completely unnecessary and false. I request you to withdraw your statement immediately.
KTR demanded legal action
In this entire incident, as soon as Konda gave a statement on the divorce of Samantha and Naga, the matter started heating up. Breaking his silence on this matter, KTR has also sent a legal notice to the minister. Hours after receiving the notice from KTR, Konda withdrew his statement. In this regard, KTR demanded that Konda withdraw his statement and publicly apologize within 24 hours. If this does not happen then they will take legal action and file a defamation case.
Samantha and Naga Chaitanya themselves also reacted on this matter. Along with this, South Superstar Junior NTR was also seen expressing his anger on this. However, now the minister has withdrawn his statement.
