Minister Konda Surekha’s recent comments have sparked a major controversy in both the Telangana politics and the film industry. The uproar began when actress Samantha responded to the sensational remarks made by Minister Konda Surekha regarding her. This led to strong condemnations from Tollywood celebrities like the Akkineni family, NTR, and Nani who criticized bringing personal matters into the political arena.
The situation escalated as Minister Konda Surekha addressed Samantha in a tweet, stating that her intention was to question a leader’s disrespect towards women. Samantha, in response, urged not to hurt sentiments and acknowledged Konda Surekha’s recognition of her self-reliance. The minister offered to retract the comments if they offended Samantha or her fans.
Furthermore, the controversy deepened when BJP MP Raghunandan garlanded Minister Konda Surekha, triggering tears as she revealed being trolled on social media, allegedly by the BRS social media team. Calls for an apology from KTR and Harish ensued, with legal notices sent to Minister Konda Surekha for personal abuses and comments involving film actors.
The Akkineni family, particularly Nagarjuna and Amala, strongly criticized Minister Konda Surekha’s remarks, demanding a retraction and respect for personal boundaries. The film industry voiced shock and condemnation, with figures like former minister Roja and actor Nani denouncing the comments as inappropriate and baseless.
