It is common to compare one person with another in the movie industry. But in the context of this comparison, talking down to actors is increasing recently. Now a senior actor of Padma Shri awardee Telugu film industry has forgotten his dignity and has spoken very disparagingly about MGR who was also a Tamil superstar actor and former CM. Nettags have criticized him for talking down about a legendary Tamil actor while praising a veteran Telugu actor.
Rajendra Prasad, who has earned the title of ‘Natakiriti’, the veteran actor of Tollywood, often gets into controversy with his words. Now he is in trouble again with his statement. His speech at the recently held ‘Kalaprapoorna Kantha Rao National Award’ ceremony in Hyderabad has now become a hot topic on social media. Tamil movie lovers are very upset about Rajendra Prasad.
Rajendra Prasad has brought up MGR’s name while celebrating the acting skills of late Telugu actor Kantha Rao and the glory of his folk films. Rajendra Prasad said that MGR used to get scared of Kantha Rao’s acting and ‘MGR used to urinate because of Kantha Rao’s acting’. ‘Who is this Kantarao? He said lightly that MGR used to tremble saying that he is not taking Indian cinema anywhere. Many times in his speech, he spoke about MGR in derogatory and singular terms.

Many have criticized a Padma Shri awardee actor for using such uncivilized words on a public platform.
