Actress Mehreen is upset with producer Shankar Prasad. She had acted with Prasad’s son Naga Shaurya in the film Aswathama, and had participated in many promotional events for it. Just a day before the release of the film, the makers held an event with senior director K. Raghavendra Rao, and asked Mehreen to come. The actress said she couldn’t be present because of a skin allergy, and even sent a doctor’s prescription to back up her statement.
However, the producers said they would not pay her hotel bills if she did not attend the event.
The next morning, the miffed actress quietly left the hotel without informing the hotel authorities that she was vacating her room. Her manager repeatedly asked the producers to clear the hotel bills, which they finally did, said a source in the know. Mehreen is very upset with this unprofessional behaviour. She can’t even talk about it openly because she wants to stay in the industry, the source added.
