The alleged love triangle involving actor Raj Tharun, actress Malvi Malhotra, and his former partner Lavanya has taken a shocking turn, escalating into a legal battle with accusations of infidelity, abandonment, and even blackmail.

Lavanya, who previously acted in short films under the name Anvika, filed a police complaint alleging that she and Raj Tharun were in a relationship since 2012 and had been living together since 2014. She claims they even had a temple wedding, though it was not legally formalized. Lavanya further alleges that Raj Tharun pressured her into an abortion and submitted evidence supporting this claim.

According to Lavanya, their relationship soured when Raj Tharun began an affair with actress Malvi Malhotra, leaving her feeling abandoned and distressed. Her complaint also details alleged threats from Malvi Malhotra, her brother, and their associates.

Raj Tharun has publicly denied the allegations, stating that he and Lavanya mutually agreed to separate in 2017. However, the evidence presented by Lavanya, along with the representation of prominent lawyer Kalyan Dilip Sunkara, could potentially strengthen her case against him.

Adding further complexity to the situation, an audio clip surfaced featuring Lavanya using abusive language towards Raj Tharun, his debut film producer, and even actor Nagarjuna. While the authenticity of the clip is yet to be verified, it has raised questions about Lavanya's actions and motivations.

In response, Raj Tharun has accused Lavanya of blackmailing him after he requested her to vacate his apartment, claiming she threatened to go public with the accusations. He has also presented evidence of financial transactions, alleging that Lavanya received significant sums of money from him.

He further questioned Lavanya's sincerity by highlighting her relationship with Mastan Sai and her subsequent complaint against him at a Guntur police station.

This ongoing controversy has taken a dramatic turn, with both sides presenting their version of events. As the legal battle intensifies, it remains to be seen what the outcome will be and whether the truth will be revealed.
