In a heartfelt display of family solidarity, actress Lavanya Tripathi has publicly come to the defense of her father-in-law, the iconic Telugu cinema superstar Chiranjeevi. This strong support comes after a journalist targeted Chiranjeevi over a past comment that resurfaced in the wake of the joyous news about Ram Charan and Upasana welcoming twins. While the old remark sparked renewed discussions and debates across social media platforms, Lavanya chose not to remain silent and addressed the criticism directly and firmly.
Lavanya Tripathi Calls Out Unfair Criticism on Social Media
Taking to the social media platform X, Lavanya Tripathi made her stance abundantly clear, expressing that she found the journalist's tweet to be both objectionable and deeply insensitive. In her detailed and emotional reply, she articulated her thoughts with precision and conviction. Lavanya wrote, "I usually ignore tweets like this and let them pass on my timeline, but I didn't expect it from you. This tweet is in extremely poor taste, turning a genuinely happy moment into something unpleasant. You clearly don't know how he treats the women in his family, especially his granddaughters. Very few men can do even 1% of what he does, so it's best not to comment on people you don't truly know :)" Her response highlights her frustration with the negativity overshadowing a celebratory family event and underscores the respect and admiration she holds for Chiranjeevi's character and actions within their family circle.
Why Chiranjeevi's Old Remark Resurfaced Online
The criticism directed at Chiranjeevi traces back to an earlier, light-hearted comment he made, where he humorously described himself as the warden of a 'ladies' hostel.' This remark was in reference to his role as a grandfather to four granddaughters at the time. Following the announcement of Ram Charan and Upasana's twins, this comment once again gained traction online, triggering a fresh wave of debate and eliciting mixed reactions from netizens and fans alike. The timing of its resurgence has brought unnecessary scrutiny to what should have been a purely happy occasion for the family.
