Folk Singer Mangli Faces Police Case Over ₹10 Crore Fraud Allegations
Panjagutta police register case after advocate claims singer and family threatened him over unpaid dues

The Telugu entertainment industry woke up to shocking news as popular folk singer Mangli found herself embroiled in a serious legal controversy. The Panjagutta police have registered a case against the celebrated artist following fraud allegations involving a staggering ₹10 crores.
Advocate Subbarao has filed a formal complaint against Mangli and her family members, alleging that the singer took the hefty sum but failed to honor her repayment commitments. What makes these allegations particularly grave is the advocate's claim that Mangli and her associates resorted to threats when confronted about the outstanding amount.
The case has been registered under BNS Sections 351(2) and 352, with Mangli's brother and three other individuals also named as accused parties. According to police sources, the investigation is actively underway, and authorities plan to question Mangli in the coming days.
Interestingly, reports suggest this might be part of a larger investment scam that has allegedly affected around 100 people, though details remain murky. Director Venu Udugula's name has also surfaced in connection with the case, adding another layer of complexity to an already serious situation.
Mangli, who rose to fame with her distinctive folk singing style and later ventured into films, has maintained silence on these allegations so far. Her journey from a village folk artist to a recognized name in Telugu cinema has been inspiring, making these accusations all the more shocking for her fanbase.
The timing couldn't be worse for the artist, who has been building her career across multiple entertainment verticals. As the investigation unfolds, the Telugu film industry watches closely to see how this legal battle impacts one of its emerging talents. For now, Mangli's team has yet to issue any official statement addressing these serious allegations.
