Reports indicate that the woman had been in a relationship with Sritej for over a year, during which he allegedly assured her of marriage. However, as per the complaint, Sritej began avoiding her from April onwards. Initially, she filed a cheating case at the Kukatpally police station, prompting an investigation by the police, who have since concluded their inquiry and filed charges against the actor.

On Monday, the woman submitted another complaint, this time at the Gachibowli police station. This led to the issuance of a zero FIR, which was later transferred back to the Kukatpally police station. Following this, a fresh case was registered, and investigations into the allegations are ongoing.
