Flora in the eye of the storm
March 28, 2008 by Ruud van
Actor Flora, who has been in the news for wrong reason, met the media persons to present her case in front of them. She said that he hadn’t committed any fault in the controversy involving her over the USA visa issues. Though she could not go about the details, as the matter is now in the court of law, she explained how she was misled by some persons in the field. Her contention was very simple: she accepted to attend the event, which dragged her in to the controversy, on the request of a person, who is a close associate to Mohan Babu. She also responded to the questions of the reporters on the issue. The press-meet that took place in Film Chambers, in Chennai, yesterday (March 26), witnessed a horde of reporters, videographers and photographers from Telugu media. The reason for such an assembly goes beyond the fact that Flora is a famous star in Telugu. The fact that she had mentioned the name of veteran Telugu star Mohan Babu seems to be the major reason for the curiosity of Telugu media. Many Telugu TV channels even arranged for live coverage of Flora’s press-meet. Though she hadn’t uttered any negative remark on the veteran actor, the mentioning of his name itself proved strong enough to attract the attention of the entire Telugu media. Flora sounded quite pathetic when she requested everyone to enquire deeply if she or he gets an invitation to tour a foreign country.
