Earlier in the week, Pawan Kalyan and his family participated in the Maha Kumbh Mela. The actor-politician's long-time friend Trivikram Srinivas, his son Akira Nandan, and wife Anna Lezhneva were with him. On the occasion, PK took his shirt off while taking a dip. Many political handles inimical to him and the Jana Sena Party on social media resorted to image morphing.
Since morphing is an offence in select cases, local functionaries of the Jana Sena have filed police complaints across several towns in Andhra Pradesh. Cases have been filed under certain BNS sections. It is only a matter of time before the police pursue these cases to their logical conclusion. IP addresses have been traced by the police.
Pawan Kalyan has also been body-shamed over his looks in the shirtless pics. While body-shaming is no offense, morphing can lead to legal consequences.
On the film work front, Pawan Kalyan will complete Hari Hara Veera Mallu and OG this year before moving to Ustaad Bhagat Singh. HHVM is slated to hit the cinemas on March 28. OG is directed by Sujeeth and produced by DVV Danayya.
