There are reports from the film industry that well-known filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma might soon be arrested. According to the latest information, the police are fully prepared to take him into custody. A team from the police has already arrived at Varma’s residence, and it is believed that the director could be arrested at any moment, with little hope of evading arrest.

The Controversy Behind the Case

The situation stems from a case involving the posting of morphed images on social media. The police in Hyderabad have been investigating Ram Gopal Varma for allegedly posting altered images of public figures, which led to significant backlash. Varma is accused of defaming Chief Minister Chandra Babu Naidu, Minister Lokesh, and Deputy CM Pawan Kalyan through these posts. A case was filed against him at the Ongole Rural Police Station, following a formal complaint by TDP (Telugu Desam Party) Mandal General Secretary, Muthanapalli Ramalingam.

On the 19th of the month, Ram Gopal Varma was issued a notice to appear in court for a hearing, but he failed to show up. After missing the first hearing, Varma was asked to appear again today, but once again, he did not appear. This has raised suspicions that he might be attempting to avoid the legal proceedings.
