Veteran actress Bhanupriya found herself in legal trouble when her 14-year old domestic help filed a case of harassment against her. The mother of the victim alleged that the actress would harass her daughter who worked as a domestic help in her residence and she didn't even pay her fees for as many as 1.5 years.  P.Prabhavati, the complainant reached Samalkota town police station in East Godavari district to lodge a complaint against the actress. She said to the police officials that Bhanupriya took her daughter to Chennai as a house-help. She even promised to pay her a monthly sum of Rs 10,000 but she has never cleared her salary since then. The actress now has decided to react against the allegations by refuting them completely. RRR: Ram Charan and Jr NTR Begin Shoot for SS Rajamouli's Upcoming Biggie - Watch Video.

The mother of the victim in her complaint said that she went to meet her daughter on January 19 but she wasn't allowed to. The actress' family rather manhandled her and later even demanded Rs 10 lakh from the poor with a warning that they will accuse them of theft in their residence if they fail to fulfil the demand. The actress, on the other hand, has a completely different tale to tell. She insists that her domestic help was stealing all the valuables from her home and secretly sending it to her mother whenever she would visit her. Kamal Haasan Says Ready For 2019 Lok Sabha Elections But Averse to Forming Alliances.

When the actress tried to confront her, she only brought back an iPad, a camera, a watch. She promised she would bring back the rest of the items. "But now she has lodged this false complaint against me in Andhra Pradesh," Bhanupriya told IANS. A police officer told news agency that legal opinion would be sought before initiating action as the alleged crime scene is situated in Chennai.
