Typical! Someone always tries to use a star's name for fraud. But I'm more excited about 'Vrushakarma' – a mythological thriller with heavy VFX sounds amazing! Naga Chaitanya is finally doing something different from his usual love stories. Can't wait! 🔥

Good on her for speaking out. But honestly, why do people still fall for these things? If a celeb is emailing you asking for money, just block and report. Common sense, yaar. Anyway, excited for her upcoming movie – hope it does well at the box office!

I appreciate her cautioning fans, but what's with the imposter getting her number in the first place? This points to a bigger issue of data privacy in India. Celebrities need to be more careful about their contact info being leaked. Also, very eager for 'Vrushakarma'! Naga Chaitanya + Sukumar story = blockbuster combination! 🎬

Seriously, these scammers have no shame. But Meenakshi handle it like a pro – publicly shaming the number. 👏 On the film front, 'Vrushakarma' sounds intriguing. A mythological thriller with treasure hunting? Sign me up! Hope the VFX doesn't disappoint like some other recent big-budget films.

Good awareness move by her. But I wish Instagram would do more to tackle impersonation accounts. They're rampant these days. As for the movie, a Naga Chaitanya-starrer mythological thriller sounds like a fresh change. Just hope the makers don't go overboard with VFX
