Senior actor Rajendra Prasad, who campaigned in support of NTR during his tenure and a strong supporter of Chandrababu Naidu and the Telugu Desam Party, hardly spoke about politics. However, in a recent interview given to a YouTube channel, he expressed his admiration for NTR. However, he made harsh criticisms of Lakshmi Parvathi.
Without mentioning her name, calling her a pauper, Rajendra Prasad alleged that NTR had distanced himself from everyone because of that pauperism, and that she had planned and destroyed NTR. He also spoke in the interview about the Viceroy Hotel episode, which became a weapon for the leaders of rival parties to criticize Chandrababu.
He said that when the elder brother (NTR) died, he cried more than his children. He said that if you watch the video from that time, you will see scenes of him falling on his body and crying. He started saying that he was telling the reason for crying like that for the first time today.
“In my eyes, Rama Rao is a God. NT Rama Rao is the person who showed what a God is like and is a God. But at one stage, that `daridram’ entered into his life. Everything changed only after that `daridram’ came,” he alleged.
“At that time, her overreaction reached an unbearable level. In that situation, everyone got out of that problem together because of Nara Chandrababu Naidu. Under his leadership, all of them came out. Along with coming out, they saved the Telugu Desam Party”, he said.
“You might think that I am talking disrespectfully about her. In fact, I have no respect for her. There is no need for it,” said Rajendra Prasad.He expressed his regret that she had planned and entered the life of NTR and deprived him of them. He said that he did not even want to mention the name of that poor woman. He said that “if you look at the election coverage at that time, he would be among the important people who stood up against her on one leg”.
