Tensions have been rising among Mega family fans since the 2024 Andhra Pradesh elections. Allu Arjun visited Nandyal to support YSR Congress Party MLA Silpa Ravi Chandra Kishore Reddy, while his uncle Pawan Kalyan contested the assembly election as an opposition candidate. After winning the elections, the actor-turned-politician became the deputy Chief Minister of AP.

As Allu Arjun was seen supporting the YSRC party MLA, rumors of his rift with the Mega family started to surface online. However, during a recent press conference in Hyderabad, Pushpa 2: The Rule producers Naveen Yerneni and Yalamanchili Ravi Shankar clarified the ongoing rumors.

When questioned about whether the rumored family rift could impact box office performance, Naveen acknowledged that there were minor incidents during the elections. He said, “There might have been small incidents during the elections, but politics apart, I’m sure all their fans will want to watch the film. They’re (the family) all fine with each other.”

Ravi promptly clarified that there was no rift between Arjun and the rest of the family, explaining that the actor did not take any sides during the elections and was in Nandyal solely to support a friend. 

Naveen added, “We met the Deputy CM during Kalki 2898 AD’s release, and he was very supportive. I’m sure we’ll have full cooperation from him now, too.”

Bollywood star Kajol, known for her stellar performances, recently grabbed attention for her seemingly rude behavior with paparazzi, especially at a Durga Puja pandal. Now addressing the buzz, Kajol candidly shared that while she doesn’t always get angry, she does have bad days. She emphasized that she won’t conform to the public’s expectations of how a celebrity should act, refusing to constantly edit herself to fit the idealized image people might expect.

In a recent interview with Zoom, Kajol finally addressed the buzz surrounding her so-called rude behavior with paparazzi, a topic that has been making headlines for quite some time. She also shared her perspective on social media, reflecting on how everything posted online is often curated to appear flawless, from the perfect angles to the ideal portrayal of life. 

However, Kajol expressed her belief that this level of perfection doesn’t truly represent who people are, pointing out that real life is far more dynamic than still images and carefully crafted posts.

Kajol went on to explain that her social media presence is intentional, aimed at showing her true self. She emphasized that, at least on her Instagram, she isn’t striving for perfection. She acknowledged having moments of anger, bad days, and good days, stressing that this is all part of who she is. 

Kajol made it clear that she refuses to constantly edit herself to fit the public’s perception of how a celebrity should behave, especially when it comes to maintaining a flawless image or controlling emotions.

She said, “I do get angry, I have bad days and good days—that’s me. I think that I cannot and will not sit down and edit myself time and again for somebody else’s idea of ‘she is a celebrity and she should not lose her temper’.”

Earlier, a video of Kajol went viral, capturing a moment where she was visibly upset with Paparazzi at a Durga Puja pandal. The photographers had gathered in the front to take pictures of the festivities, which visibly angered Kajol. 

Frustrated, she sternly asked them to step aside and make way for the devotees who had come for darshan. She said, “People are standing behind you for anjouli. Please move aside, please side ho jaiye, peeche ho jaiye. Anjouli dene ke liye logo ko aane dijiye.”
