Congress MLC Balmuri Venkat has lodged a formal complaint with the Movie Artistes Association (MAA), seeking the termination of actor Srikanth Iyengar’s membership. In addition, he has filed a complaint with the Cyber Crime Department, urging strict action against the actor.
Srikanth Iyengar, a well-known character artist in Tollywood, has reportedly become a habitual critic on social media, often making controversial remarks on sensitive public issues. His recent comments about Mahatma Gandhi, the Father of the Nation, have sparked outrage and provoked strong reactions within society.
According to reliable sources, the Congress government has taken serious note of these remarks and is closely monitoring the situation. Meanwhile, the MAA Association has confirmed that it will initiate stern disciplinary measures against Srikanth Iyengar at the earliest, emphasizing that such actions will not be tolerated within the industry.
