A family court in Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh, has ordered Tollywood comedian Prudhvi Raj to pay Rs 8 lakh every month as maintenance to his wife Srilakshmi. In her petition, Srilakshmi mentioned that the actor used to stay with in-laws in Vijayawada after their marriage and her parents bore all his travel expenses whenever he travelled to Chennai for shooting films.
After their separation, Srilakshmi pleaded before the court that Prudhvi Raj should return the money. Srilakshmi had filed a petition before the family court in 2017. Delivering the judgment, justice U Indira Priyadarshini directed that by the 10th of every month the actor will pay Rs 8 lakh to Srilakshmi.
