A light-hearted interaction between Andhra Pradesh Minister Nara Lokesh and Pooja Prasad, the wife of SS Rajamouli’s son SS Karthikeya has gone viral on social media. The occasion was the inauguration of a Women’s Junior College at Punadipadu in Krishna district’s Penamaluru constituency. The college was built with a donation from Karthikeya’s mother-in-law.
Nara Lokesh, Karthikeya, and Pooja attended the event together. During the interaction, Lokesh playfully turned to Pooja and asked, “Is Karthikeya taking good care of you? Any complaints? I’m here.”
Pooja laughingly replied, “No… no complaints.” Hearing her response, Lokesh smiled, looked at Karthikeya, and jokingly remarked, “Bach gaya!” (You escaped!)
The candid exchange drew laughter from everyone present and has since become widely shared across social media.
Pooja Prasad is a singer and the wife of S.S. Karthikeya, who is actively involved in the production and creative aspects of Rajamouli’s films. She is also the daughter of actor Jagapathi Babu’s elder brother.
The short video has struck a chord with viewers, who are enjoying the candid moment away from the usual formal public appearances.
