The Manchu family dispute has overshadowed the festive spirit of Sankranti in Andhra Pradesh, even drawing attention away from traditional cockfights. While the tensions seemed to have subsided, they resurfaced recently when actor Manchu Manoj visited Mohan Babu University in Tirupati. This visit reignited conflicts within the family, leading to police complaints being filed by both sides. Consequently, two cases were registered today at the Chandragiri police station, adding fuel to the ongoing feud.
Amid the escalating drama, Manchu Vishnu stirred controversy with a viral social media post. He shared an audio clip featuring a sharp dialogue from his movie ‘Rowdy’, directed by Ram Gopal Varma. Vishnu captioned the post by calling the dialogue one of his personal favorites. The line, translated as, “Every dog wants to be a lion. But the difference between barking on the street and roaring in the jungle is something you may learn in your next life,” sparked widespread speculation among netizens. Many questioned whether the statement was a veiled jibe at his brother, Manchu Manoj, given their strained relationship.
In response, Manoj took to social media to retaliate. He posted pictures of the late legendary actor Krishnam Raju and directly addressed Vishnu’s dream project, ‘Kannappa’. He commented, “Every fraud dog dreams of becoming a lion, like Rebel Star Krishnam Raju garu in ‘Kannappa’. You might learn this lesson in this very lifetime.” This exchange has intensified the public feud, keeping netizens glued to updates about the high-profile family conflict.
