Actor Prithviraj Faces Arrest Warrant Over Alimony Dispute
Actor Prithviraj was issued a non-bailable arrest warrant by a family court in Vijayawada. The warrant stems from an alimony case filed by his wife, Balireddy Srilakshmi.
Previously, the court had ordered Prithviraj to pay a significant sum (Rs 8 lakh per month) in alimony, which he contested in the High Court. The High Court reduced the amount to Rs 22,000 per month and ordered him to clear outstanding dues.
However, Prithviraj allegedly failed to comply with the High Court’s order. According to Srilakshmi’s petition, he did not appear in court and only issued a public notice regarding the case. This led the family court to issue the arrest warrant.
The couple, married since 1984 with two children, reportedly faced financial difficulties during Prithviraj’s early acting career. Srilakshmi claims her family even helped support him then. Despite this, she alleges Prithviraj forced her out of their home in 2016.
