Manchu Vishnu, actor and president of the Movie Artists Association, made outrageous claims that a prominent Telugu hero was pursuing him and his family, and that he would soon reveal the hero's identity from whose office a social media campaign was being run to harass and defame him. Manchu Vishnu claimed at a gathering that 18 YouTube channels had been the subject of complaints to the Cyber Crime department. He said that these networks were engaging in a social media troll campaign against him and his family. Additionally, he disclosed that two IP (Internet Protocol) addresses have been located. The claims against Vishnu follow the release of his upcoming movie Ginna. Along with him, Payal Rajput and Sunny Leone are featured in the comedy-entertainment movie.
