Posani and VH fight,Posani at TV5
(S.Ravi Seshu)
Telugu news viewers had a super live show in ‘Top Story’ of TV-5 in the form of a fight between popular film actor Posani Krishnamurali and Congress top leader V.Hanumantha Rao on Thursday.
During a debate on Kashmir-Surgical strikes and Modi govt, anchored by senior journalist Sambasiva Rao, Posani, who earned the dubious distinction as ‘Mental Krishna’ for his dare devilish ideas and no-holds-barred comments, ran into an equally famous politician with more are less same traits. Going by the clippings available on social media, Posani can’t be blamed here! CPI leader Narayana, another politician famous for his witticism, was the witness.
Posani snubbed Narayana first by recollecting the Communist government’s alleged oppressive tactics against formers in Singur. Supporting the strikes against terrorists in PoK, Posani sought to know as to how a Prime Minister, who is taking care of this ‘big country’, can keep mum over the misadventures of Pakistan.
VH, a staunch Congressman, took objection when Posani made it clear that the Prime Minister Modi is the honest available politician in the contemporary politics.
Going by the heated argument, Posani had told the anchor that he was not ready for a slang match in the discussion. “I had already told you (Sambasiva Rao) before coming to the show that I don’t want to resort to dog fight. “We are not dogs to fight. We are human beings. If I talk you should shut up and if you talk, I will be tightlipped. I have a policy on this,” he claimed making high voltage gestures coupled with ill-tempered tone. VH irritated him by asking him to stop praising Modi.
Posani is not a person to take nonsense from others. He quickly rebuked VH for his objection to air his opinion on Modi. “aay…nuvvu yekkuva maatlaadutunnav (hey, you are talking too much),” VH refuted in chaste Telangana dialect. Posani took serious objection to that and shouted something. In the bustle, nothing was audible but both of them were seen menacingly rushing towards each other. “Nee yaamma…,” Posani said and ran towards VH even as the anchor tried his best to stop an embarrassing moment.
What happened afterwards is not yet known.
