In an attempt to drop a formal complaint against her for endorsing gambling applications, Anchor Shyamala has petitioned the Telangana High Court. Other celebrities are also involved in the complaint that was filed at the Punjagutta police station.
Twenty-five celebrities, including well-known actors Prakash Raj, Vijay Devarakonda, Manchu Lakshmi, and Rana Daggubati, are being investigated by Telangana police for allegedly endorsing unlawful betting applications. A businessman named Phanindra Sarma submitted a complaint, which led to the filing of the FIR.
Praneetha, Nidhi Agarwal, Ananya Nagalla, Siri Hanumanthu, Sreemukhi, Varshini Sounderajan, Vasanthi Krishnan, Shoba Shetty, Amrutha Chowdary, Nayani Pavani, Neha Pathan, Pandu, Padhmavathi, Imran Khan, Vishnu Priya, Harsha Sai, Sunny Yadav, Shyamala, Tasty Teja, and Bandaru Sheshayani Supritha are among the other celebrities and influencers named in the FIR.
In this case, the FIR says that these betting apps promote their apps with the help of celebrities and social media influencers. It is said that, “Thousands of lakhs of rupees are involved in these illegal platforms and it is also leading many families into distress, especially that of middle-class and lower middle-class.”
Concerning the case, police have questioned social media influencer Ritu Chowdhary and anchor Vishnu Priya in the recent investigation.
Key figures in the film business and the Congress’s political enemies both criticized the actor’s detention, which had caused a huge controversy. Chief Minister Revanth Reddy met with a group of actors and filmmakers amid the commotion and assured them that peace and order will not be compromised, even if the state government supported the film industry.
