Several reports have surfaced claiming that Mahesh Babu is playing a cameo role in nephew Ashok Galla’s film Devaki Nandana Vasudeva. The reports claimed that the actor would appear as lord Krishna in the movie, but it has been dismayed by Ashok himself now.

Galla took to his official X (formerly Twitter) handle and wrote, “My apologies for not responding immediately to the rumors about our superstar Mahesh mamayya doing cameo role as lord Krishna in my film Devaki Nandana Vasudeva. This news is absolutely false! I’m also very disappointed that such misleading news has spread and again sorry for responding so late.”

The actor also clarified that he is currently shooting for his next film in New York City, which is why he was unable to clarify the news before it went viral on social media. Ashok Galla further added, “To be clear, it would be a very big personal and also career-defining moment if there truly was such a cameo in any of my films, and I would be the first one to share such news.”

The actor further asked everyone to refrain from spreading such rumors and expressed his excitement about the release of his film soon.
