HYDERABAD: In a significant development, Hyderabad’s Miyapur police have registered cases against several prominent Tollywood actors for allegedly promoting betting apps. The actors named include Rana Daggubati, Vijay Deverakonda, Prakash Raj, Manchu Lakshmi, Nidhhi Agerwal, and Pranitha Subhash.
The allegations state that these actors endorsed betting applications, which is a violation of the law. The cases have been filed under FIR number 393/2025, invoking sections 318(4)112, read with 49 BN S 3,3(A)4, TS G A, and 66-D ITA 2000-2008.
This action follows recent social media posts by RTC MD VC Sajjanar, who expressed strong disapproval of influencers promoting betting apps. Previously, cases were filed against individuals like Bhayya Sandeep and Harsha Sai for similar promotions.
The police are intensifying their crackdown on such endorsements, aiming to curb the promotion of illegal betting platforms. Investigations are ongoing, and further details are awaited.
