The much-anticipated legal battle between actor Akkineni Nagarjuna and Telangana Minister Konda Surekha has once again been delayed. The Nampally Special Court has adjourned the hearing on Nagarjuna’s defamation suit against Surekha, scheduling the next session for October 30. This postponement follows a reply filed by Surekha’s advocate, Gurmeet Singh, countering the claims made by the actor. Nagarjuna had initiated legal proceedings following controversial remarks made by Surekha, which linked him to the high-profile divorce of his daughter-in-law, actress Samantha.

The case revolves around statements made by Minister Surekha that sparked public debate and media speculation. She implied that Nagarjuna had a role in the divorce between his son Naga Chaitanya and Samantha, one of Tollywood’s most talked-about breakups. These comments not only dragged Nagarjuna into a personal controversy but also raised questions about the privacy of celebrities and the accountability of public figures. The actor promptly responded by filing a defamation suit, accusing Surekha of tarnishing his reputation with baseless claims.

Nagarjuna, a well-known figure in the Telugu film industry, has largely maintained a dignified silence on family matters, including his son’s divorce, until this legal incident. The defamatory remarks, however, pushed him to take legal action to protect his image. His fans and supporters have rallied behind him, arguing that the comments made by the Minister were unwarranted and inappropriate, further fueling the public’s interest in this legal clash. Surekha, on the other hand, has stood by her statements, leading to a tense standoff in court.

With the court date now moved to October 30, the case remains in the public eye, as many eagerly await the outcome. The legal dispute has highlighted the fine line between public discourse and personal defamation, raising concerns about the ethics of political figures making claims about celebrities’ private lives. As the legal drama continues to unfold, both Nagarjuna and Surekha’s legal teams are expected to present their arguments, and all eyes will be on the court to see whether this high-profile case finally moves forward.
