The son of Union Minister Ram Charan Tej had invited trouble with careless attitude that crossed the lines of arrogance when he indulged in a roadside brawl indirectly on Sunday. The bodyguards of the actor, obviously upon his commands, had manhandled a software engineer for not giving him way on the road.

The incident occurred on the busy streets of Road No 1, Banjara Hills right outside the GVK mall when Ram Charan was driving outside the Taj Krishna to Nagarjuna Circle. While he pulled out near the rotary near GVK mall, a Maruti Alto driven by Phaneesh and Kalyan allegedly obstructed his path.

After repeated honking, Charan Tej over took them immediately as the congestion cleared a bit and then pulled over the Alto. Phaneesh and Kalyan were surprised to see Ram Charan behind when the glass of the car was lowered. The Genpact employees were soon in an argument with Ram Charan who was under the impression that they deliberately “obstructed” him. Despite explaining, he called up four of his bodyguards who came to the site immediately and punched Phaneesh.

The software employees walked into the Banjara Hills police station but came out without registering any complaint. This obviously is an indication of the powerful influence of a wealthy celeb with a big fan base and political support but none can prove them wrong.
