Murli Mohan and Mohan Babu Patch Up
on Jul 24, 2011
Veteran actor Murli Mohan, true to his style, opened up his heart to tell the viewers of a popular talk show on a 24/7 news channel that he and actor Mohan Babu had almost come close to blows at MAA office many years ago. What apparently sparked off the face off between them were the contrasting perceptions Murli Mohan had in accepting the sons of Mohan Babu to be part of the star cricket match that was planned. Murli Mohan objected to Mohan Babu's demand for the inclusion of Manchu Vishnu and Manoj because they were not part of the industry (they had not debuted as actors yet).
However, an insistent Mohan Babu swaggered his way to the MAA office, in Murli Mohan's version, and demanded that nobody could dare to exclude his sons from the team with a trace of arrogance. This irked Murli Mohan who asked him to leave the premises immediately. Soon, they found themselves coming to each other's grips when actress Jaya Sudha stepped in to calm them. However, Murli Mohan said that they patched up later on their way back to Hyderabad from Tirupati in a plane. He said that Mohan Babu is an impulsive man, but at heart he is quite good.
