“What is the problem if I speak here?” KTR is seen disputing with police officials who ask him to talk to the media at his party office.
“Why are you scared if I talk to the media?” KTR questions the Hyderabad police officials to which they reply, “It can create a traffic jam. We are doing our duty.”
