Protest at Nagarjuna’s house, 8 held

HYDERABAD: With just one day to go for the first episode of Bigg Boss Telugu’s season 3 to begin, eight students from Osmania University Joint Action Committee staged a protest in front of actor and show host Nagarjuna Akkineni’s house.
The committee’s president had earlier approached State Human Rights Commission, after journalist Swetha Reddy and actor Gayathri Gupta filed two police complaints alleging harassment by the show’s organisers.
The students said the organisers and Nagarjuna have remained silent about the allegations. The students were taken into preventive custody by police soon after they began protesting around 11 am. "All the students were taken into preventive custody. Fifteen policemen were deployed outside the actor's house as a precaution," Jubilee Hills inspector Balakrishna said.
