Lately, it is being noticed that veteran Dasari Narayana Rao is not losing a single opportunity to give a piece of his mind to today’s stars. On the other hand, hero Siddarth has not made amends to his ways of picking up fights with the media or rolling out derogatory statements.
Now, the paths of both have crossed. It is heard that Dasari has decided to involve in the controversy wherein Sidz tweeted on electronic media few weeks back. The comment read - "3rd grade 'N'ews channels will sell their families to make up an hour of TV. Clarifying their garbage & lies is not worth our time. Ignore!".
This didn’t go sweetly with the Film Newscasters Association of Electronic Media (FNAEM). Apparently, they complained to Movie Artists Association (MAA) but then it is heard that the MAA president Murali Mohan downplayed it saying it was not specific towards Telugu media. Even a letter sent to producers council and to Dil Raju who is doing a film with Sidz yielded no results, as per sources.
So now, the FNAEM has approached Dasari and it is heard that the Darsakaratna is quite serious. He has reportedly spoken to Murali Mohan and demanded an apology from Siddarth. Sources also say Dasari spoke very strictly with Dil Raju and warned that if Sidz doesn’t apologise, he will make it a national issue. Dasari reportedly indicated that if the statement was not meant for Telugu media then it is insulting the National media.
The industry folks say that if Siddarth doesn’t wake up and reacts atleast now, he is sure to face trouble in the future and also his career. There is also a talk that the FNAEM is planning to approach the Human Rights Commission regarding this. Let us see what happens.
