Case against Mohan Babu for alleged slapping actress
23 July 2003

A case was registered against film actor Mohan Babu by actress Shilpla Sivanand for allegedly slapping her during the shooting of the film Vishnu in which Mohan Babu's son Vishnu Vardhan plays the lead role. Shilpla is the sister of South Indian film actress Sakshi. The shooting scene was taking place at Annapurna Studio's where a kissing scene is to be taken with the heroine kissing the hero. Sources says that Mohan babu asked her to redo the scene for not having proper expression for which the actress rejected. Babu was alleged as 'abusing' the actress for this. He was allegedly of locking the actress and her mother in a room.

The case was registered at Jubilee Hills Police Station quoting Sections 323 (voluntarily causing hurt), 342 (wrongful confinement), 504 (insult intended to provoke breach of peace) and 506 (criminal intimidation) of the Indian Penal Code

Meanwhile, Mohan Babu also filed a case against the actress for allegedly stopping the film shooting when it was almost completed and for demanding more money. Speaking with the press, Mohan Babu said that she acted rudely at the film unit which is unfair. He question why he has to slap the actress when he was not the captain (Director) of the movie and when the entire unit is in set. Mr. Mohan Babu denied news that he took a statement from the actress of working till 27-30 July 2003.

He quoted, "I acted in over 504 films and worked with all top actresses. None of them had any problem with me." The Producer of the movie was keen in taking the issue to the Producers Council since the movie will come to a stand still if the actress rejects to continue with the movie.
