Veteran Telugu actor Rajendra Prasad has found himself in hot water after using an unseemly term to describe fellow actor Brahmanandam at the trailer launch of 'Sahakutumbaanaam'. The incident has sparked a heated debate on social media, with fans calling for the actor to be held accountable for his words. During the event, Rajendra Prasad was asked to deliver his speech after Brahmanandam, but the veteran comedian interrupted him, sparking a lighthearted exchange between the two. However, things took a turn when Rajendra Prasad used a derogatory term to describe Brahmanandam, who is significantly older than him. Brahmanandam appeared taken aback, and Rajendra Prasad quickly backtracked, claiming he was referring to himself. The internet was not impressed with Rajendra Prasad's behavior, with many calling for him to be held accountable for his words. Some even compared him to Balakrishna, another Telugu actor who has a history of controversy. However, Rajendra Prasad's fans came to his defense, citing his recent personal struggles and asking for empathy. It's worth noting that this is not the first time Rajendra Prasad has landed in trouble for his comments. In March, he tendered an apology for using similar language to describe Australian cricketer David Warner. Brahmanandam and Rajendra Prasad have a long history of working together, with Brahmanandam appearing in numerous films headlined by Rajendra Prasad. The incident has sparked a wider conversation about the need for actors to be more mindful of their words and actions in public.
