Actress Manchu Lakshmi Prasanna appeared before the Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Wednesday in connection with a case involving the promotion of illegal betting apps.
The ED’s Hyderabad office has been summoning several actors who endorsed such apps.
Manchu Lakshmi is the fourth celebrity to face questioning in this investigation, following Prakash Raj, Vijay Deverakonda, and Rana Daggubati.
