Nandamuri Balakrishna with Anjali
Telugu superstar Nandamuri Balakrishna also known as 'Balayya' is facing the wrath of netizens for his 'disrespectful' behaviour towards an actress. A video of the superstar pushing actress Anjali on stage during the pre-release event of 'Gangs of Godavari' has gone viral on social media. Balakrishna was the chief guest at the event for the film starring Anjali. The senior actor is seen pushing Anjali away as they come together to pose for the media.
Anjali's co-star Neha who was standing beside her was shocked by Balakrishna's behaviour. However, Anjali did not seem offended and was seen laughing off at the incident. Balakrishna was seen telling her something before pushing her and continued to address her even after the push. Even though Anjali seems unfazed by the incident, netizens expressed disappointment at Balayya's behaviour.

A user wrote, "Man, this is straight up sad. I try my best to separate the art from the artist, but in this guy's case, it's damn near impossible. Poor woman could've fallen down, too."
It’s been known that balakrishna is a rude, drunken pervert. Yet these idiots hype him up by calling him ballayya and shit.People like him put TFI and telugu people in general light years behind. The day we make him irrelevant and widely disliked is the day we can say we’ve moved on from the dark ages of Telugu Cinema.
TFI badly needs its own me too. Pity Radhika Apte’s comments on him largely fell on deaf ears.
Anjali is known for doing performance-oriented roles in several hit Tamil and Telugu films such as ‘Angaadi Theru’, ‘Engaeyum Eppothum’, ‘Seethamma Vakitlo Sirimalle Chettu’ and ‘Geethanjali’.
Filmmaker Hansal Mehta also came across the video and shared it writing, "Who is this scumbag?"

During the same event, Balakrishna said that he doesn’t want his son and aspiring actor Mokshagna to tread his path. “I don’t want him to be inspired by me, although my fans would be upset with my decision,’ he says and adds, “Mokshagna will be making his debut very soon and it will be a much-awaited film. I’ll be behind him like a rock, but I wish he treks his own path,” the actor was quoted as saying by Great Andhra.com.
He continued, “I want my son to take a cue from new-generation actors.” However, Balakrishna claimed that he can match strides with younger generation heroes like Siddhu Jonnalagadda and Adivi Sesh and give them a tough fight. “I am in no mood to give up,” he quipped.
