KOTA SRINIVASA RAO WARNS PEOPLE AGAINST FALSE RUMOURS
After reports about his death started circulating on the internet and he was on the receiving end of unexpected phone calls, the actor was forced to release a video statement. In the viral video, he said “Namaste to all. Firstly, my hearty Ugadi wishes to all the viewers. The reason I’m talking in this video is to clarify that I’m doing absolutely fine. I came to learn that some people have put out in social media that I have passed away. I was absolutely unaware of this news and was preparing for Ugadi celebrations tomorrow when I started receiving calls from as early as 7.30 AM.” Rao further added “What was more surprising is that police people arrive in a van. There were about ten of them. They said since I’m a senior actor and people would come and pay their respects, we’ve come to provide any kind of support and security. I insisted that they look into such disturbing rumours. Through this video, I’m urging people to not fall for such rumours. People shouldn’t play with someone’s life.”
The veteran made his acting debut with 1978 Telugu film Pranam Khareedu. He was honoured with the Padma Shri in 2015 and worked in over 500 films in multiple languages such as Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Kannada.
