Music awards turn war zone

The recent ugly war of words between the duo where Balayya accused Chiru of "mortgaging" his party to the Congress and Chiru retaliating that Balayya was "a little child and should not be taken seriously" was followed by fights breaking out between their fans. So, at the awards event, industry watchers and star baiters were agog with excitement waiting for the face-off to happen.

Chiru no show!
However, while Chiranjeevi chose to skip the event, his representatives, son Ram Charan Tej and nephew Allu Arjun, walked in only after Balakrishna's felicitation was over and he had left the venue with Nayanthara in tow. An eye witness at the event says that an elderly member from the Chiru camp was overheard constantly updating Ram Charan on Balayya's movements.

Magadheera vs Dookudu
No sooner did Ram Charan Tej enter the venue with Bunny, he was shown a seat beside Anil Sunkara, the producer of "Dookudu". The actor immediately stopped in his tracks and asked the organizers to find another seat for Bunny and him elsewhere.

Missing bonhomie
The other young star invited for the do was Naga Chaitanya and he chose to sit quietly beside Amala. The young brigade of star sons, who used to earlier greet each other with hugs and great camaraderie preferred not to even acknowledge the other's presence.
