This altercation comes after Lavanya alleged that Tarun abandoned her for another actress, Malvi Malhotra and that she has faced legal issues related to drug possession in the past.
As per reports, Lavanya who looked visibly agitated, reacted violently when Badha accused her of encouraging drug use among youngsters.
During the live broadcast, Lavanya threw her sandal at Basha, hitting him in the process, which led to further commotion on-air.
Basha, who has been actively participating in debates and interviews to defend Tarun, had earlier displayed call records and messages to counter Lavanya's claims.
However, Tarun, who has been maintaining a low profile amid the media frenzy, clarified that his relationship with Lavanya ended due to her drug-related issues and stated that she is currently involved with Mastan Sai, with whom she has reportedly had legal disputes.
Tarun has chosen not to engage further with the media, indicating that he plans to address the matter through legal channels with documented evidence.
The dispute has caused a stir in the Tollywood industry, with Lavanya's accusations and subsequent public outbursts adding fuel to the fire. The upcoming release of Tarun's film "Tiragabadara Saami," featuring Malvi Malhotra, has further complicated the situation, as Lavanya's claims continue to unfold.
