dispute
Dissatisfied with description of father in biography

The film is about Radha’s father, Vangaveeti Mohana Ranga Rao, but the makers don’t know the correct story of his life. It seems they borrowed his father’s name just to make money. Radha also said in the complaint that the film portrays his father and his followers as thugs and killers.
Detained by police for protesting with mother
In 2017, Radha Krishna and his mother were embroiled in a controversy when they protested in Mohrajpuram, Vijayawada. People supporting Vangaveeti Radhakrishna got into an argument with the police, who tried to stop Radha and his mother from going to Satyanarayanapuram and holding a press conference. They protested against YSRC union leader P Goutham Reddy’s defamatory remarks on the murder of Radha’s father Vangaveeti Mohana Ranga. The problem started when Goutham Reddy compared Langa to a snake and spoke ill of Langa’s death during a TV interview.
