Minister Konda Surekha has faced significant backlash following her comments regarding the divorce of actors Naga Chaitanya and Samantha Ruth Prabhu. Her remarks, which not only targeted the Akkineni family but also implicated BRS leader K.T. Rama Rao (KTR), sparked outrage across the film industry.

Several members of the Akkineni family expressed their discontent with Konda Surekha’s allegations. Naga Chaitanya and his father, Nagarjuna, publicly criticized her comments, emphasizing the importance of privacy and respect in personal matters. Mega hero Varun Tej Konidela further escalated the situation by taking to social media to voice his support for the Akkineni family.

In a strongly worded tweet, Varun Tej condemned the “harsh and unnecessary words” directed at the Akkineni family by Minister Konda Surekha. He emphasized that targeting a family, especially making disparaging remarks about a woman, is unacceptable. His comments reflect a growing sentiment among industry professionals who believe that personal attacks should not be used as political tools.

Varun’s stance highlights the need for respect and dignity in public discourse, particularly regarding personal matters. As part of the film fraternity, he asserted that such behavior will not be tolerated. He urged political figures to focus on progress and development instead of resorting to “nonsense” that harms individuals and families.

The incident underscores the challenges faced by celebrities in navigating public scrutiny and the intersection of politics and personal life. As the situation develops, it remains to be seen how the public and the industry will continue to respond to Konda Surekha’s comments and the broader implications for the film community.
