Kota Srinivas Rao refutes shocking rumours

Kota Srinivas Rao has held a press meet to refute the rumours regarding his health status.  For the past few weeks, the social media world has been agog with gossips about the alleged deterioration in his health.

"But for pains that old age brings in its wake, I have no ailments.  I have been reading rumours about the same.  Of late, we have read such rumours regarding P Susheela garu also.  It's sad.  In my case, they have said that I have had severe lungs problem.  Let it be known that I can still do films even at this age.  The film industry and the audience at large have loved me for the past 40 years," he said on Friday.

"I urge everybody not to write such unfounded news.  The government too should take stringent action against those publishing fake news," he opined.
