'Cybercrime has become a big crime': Nagarjuna

Speaking to the media, Nagarjuna emphasised the growing threat posed by cybercrime and the importance of awareness among citizens. "I am very happy to be here. This is very necessary, not just for the film industry but for the entire country. In today's date, cybercrime has become a big crime because we can't see them.
