After all, what is the fight about?
Speculation of a dispute emerged after disagreements within the Telugu Film and TV Dancers Association became public. Several videos of heartfelt arguments between Jani and Shekhar and attempts to separate them went viral. The dispute reportedly centers on administrative decisions related to the conduct of by-elections.
Sumalatha, president of the association and wife of Jani Master, was accused by a section of members of taking decisions without wide consultation, leading to the resignation of several office-bearers.
As tensions escalated, videos showing Jani Master and Shekhar Master arguing in the association office surfaced on social media, leading to speculation that the two had personal differences. However, Jani’s latest statement makes it clear that the disagreement was related to internal issues of the association and not their personal relations.
