The Manchu family, one of Telugu cinema’s most prominent households, is embroiled in a public feud involving veteran actor Mohan Babu and his son, actor Manchu Manoj. While the exact cause of the dispute remains unclear, the feud has garnered significant public attention since it erupted earlier this week.
Lakshmi Manchu’s Response
Actor Lakshmi Manchu, who moved to Mumbai from Hyderabad in 2023, has refrained from commenting directly on the matter. However, her recent cryptic social media posts have sparked speculation.
On Thursday, Lakshmi shared a quote by Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius on X (formerly Twitter), saying, “What are you afraid of losing, when nothing in the world actually belongs to you.”
She also posted a note on Instagram Stories that read, “I just don’t want that for myself anymore, is a valid reason to stop anything.” Additionally, Lakshmi shared a video of her daughter Vidya Nirvana captioned “Peace” with an evil eye emoji on Wednesday.
Internet Reactions
Fans and followers of the family were quick to connect Lakshmi’s posts to the ongoing family tensions. While some urged her to help resolve the matter, others expressed hope that the family would reconcile soon.
One user on X commented, “Share the same quote to your father and brothers, please.” Another wrote, “I’m sure you all will come out of this and live happily hereon.” A concerned fan added, “Whatever the issue is, please solve it privately.”
The Family Feud
The feud escalated when Mohan Babu reportedly filed a police complaint against his son Manoj and daughter-in-law Bhuma Mounika, alleging assault and an attempt to take over his property. Manoj also lodged a complaint, accusing unnamed family members of physically assaulting him, a claim corroborated by a medical report.
The conflict reached its peak when Manoj was denied entry into Mohan Babu’s home. Manoj brought members of the press along, resulting in a confrontation between a reporter and Mohan Babu. Following this altercation, the veteran actor was hospitalized.
Manchu Vishnu, another member of the family, addressed the media but declined to divulge details, stating that the matter was private. Manoj, however, attributed the feud to issues surrounding the management of Mohan Babu University.
Conclusion
While the Manchu family remains tight-lipped about the specifics, Lakshmi Manchu’s cryptic posts and fans’ reactions highlight the public interest in the matter. Many hope that the family will resolve their differences and restore harmony.
