Drama is as common in Tollywood’s vast theater as celluloid, but a recent incident has sparked a tempest. During a fun exchange with Rana Daggubati, Teja Sajja unintentionally irritated Mahesh Babu’s devoted fan base.
Known for their clever repartee, the pair enjoyed jokingly making fun of different Tollywood movies. But a spark was lit when the topic of Mahesh Babu’s next movie, Guntur Kaaram, came up. Although Teja’s remarks were meant to be humorous, the superstar’s followers felt that they were disrespectful.
The problem was swiftly magnified by the internet, which has two sides, and Mahesh Babu’s supporters came together to protect their idol’s reputation. Opinions diverged, hashtags gained popularity, and the internet turned into a battlefield.
Teja’s comments are perceived by some fans as lighthearted banter, but others consider them as a flagrant insult to an experienced performer. The ongoing dispute serves as a reminder that, particularly in the delicate realm of fandom, even the best-laid jokes can occasionally backfire.
