Tollywood under CBI scanner

Tollywood continues to be under CBI scanner for the second day today with Mega star Chirajeevi’s son and young turk, Ram Charan Teja being questioned by the sleuths of the apex investigation agency here.

Ram Charan, who shot into prominence with his macho performance in Magadheera, was questioned by the CBI in connection with the Emmar Properties case. Nearly 85 persons, including film stars, kin of cabinet ministers, politicians and industrialists were notices for buying villas in the Emmar Properties, promoted by YS Jagan Mohan Reddy and others. The main allegation is that APIIC went out of the way to allot the land at a throw away price to the Company.

Ram Charan was accompanied by his uncle Allu Aravind, who is top producer in tinsel land. On Wednesday, actor Mahesh Babu’s wife Namrata Shirodkar was also questioned on similar charges.
