💨 Abstract

Veteran actor Chiranjeevi has sparked controversy by expressing a desire for a grandson to "continue the legacy" at a pre-release event, implying that only boys can carry on family lineage. His comments were criticized as sexist and outdated, with some social media users calling him a "joker." CPI-M leader Brinda Karat expressed regret over the comments and said they reflect son preference cultures that put pressure on women to produce sons.
