After the information about a protest by Boya reached the police, the Jubliee Hills police team reached the spot and with the help of women staff, they took the artist to the police station. Although this was not the first time she has staged a protest, she used to do it regularly in front of the production company and the Telugu Film Chamber office.
Boya's allegation was directed towards Bunny Vasu, a filmmaker. He had started off at the production house as an employee but later started working alongside Allu Aravind.
However, this is not the first time that Boya has been in news for an incident like this. In 2019, she had called out filmmaker Bunny Vasu publicly for harassing her. She allegedly blamed him for promising to give her roles in the films but later on defying the promise.
Although, she took back her words on the harassment later. The producer clarified his stance on the entire matter, but later Boya threatened to kill the producer's daughter. In 2018, she had also levelled allegations against filmmaker Kathi Mahesh, alleging that he had harassed her.
