Hyderabad | Telugu Vaadi TV: A new viral street interview featuring Sahasra Aunty has captured public attention once again — this time for her fiery defense of Megastar Chiranjeevi and his family amid the latest buzz surrounding Upasana Konidela’s rumored second pregnancy. Her comments, filled with both anger and humor, focus less on the pregnancy rumor itself and more on the public criticism the Konidela family faced in the past.
Public Criticism After Chiranjeevi’s ‘Grandson’ Remark
Rewinding to 2023, after Ram Charan and Upasana welcomed their first child, a baby girl, Chiranjeevi jokingly remarked in front of the media, “Charan, this time at least give a boy!” [00:18]. The line, intended in lighthearted family spirit, quickly became viral — triggering a wave of online backlash accusing the veteran actor of gender bias.
Social media users, journalists, and netizens heavily trolled the remark, arguing that it was “regressive” and “insensitive” in the modern era. Memes circulated for weeks. But in this new viral clip, Sahasra Aunty strongly fires back at those critics — years later — with trademark boldness and unapologetic wit.
“All the gossipers who barked before — they will shut their mouths now!”
Sahasra Aunty begins her rant by recalling the uproar that followed Chiranjeevi’s statement: “All sorts of people blabbered all sorts of nonsense,” she says, using the Telugu phrase “evarevaro aevevo pelaru” [01:28]. Her tone turns fierce as she declares, “Now, all the cackling groups will close their mouths!” (“Koosina kootalu anni moosukuntai”) [01:01].
Her energy is unfiltered and expressive — she even mimics how critics reacted back then, sarcastically asking, “Are girls not heirs? Are girls not heirs?” (“Ammaayilu varasulu kaadhaa?”) [01:13]. Her sarcasm clearly aims to expose what she calls the “fake outrage” of the time, mocking those who attacked the Megastar’s comment without understanding its family context.
“Chiranjeevi has every right as a father and grandfather”
At the core of Sahasra Aunty’s statement is her defense of family values and generational affection. “Chiranjeevi garu has every right to make that wish. As a father, as a grandfather, as the head of his family — he can say anything to his son,” she says passionately [01:20].
According to her, the remark was not about gender discrimination but about a typical grandfather’s joy and longing. “He didn’t mean that girls are lesser. He just spoke as a happy father who already has granddaughters and wished for a grandson too. What’s wrong with that?” she argues. Her tone reflects the emotional vocabulary of many traditional families where such wishes are expressed casually — not with malice, but affection.
“God has given the perfect answer to the critics”
Toward the end of the interview, Sahasra Aunty delivers her closing punchline: “Now that Upasana is rumored to be expecting twin boys, it’s God and time’s good answer to all those who mocked the family!” [01:28]. She says this with a triumphant smile, implying poetic justice against those who criticized Chiranjeevi.
“You see? God listens. Those who laughed then will now hide their faces,” she adds, laughing. The statement went instantly viral online, both for its humor and its bluntness.
Public Reaction: Mixed but Entertained
The audience reaction to Sahasra Aunty’s latest “firing” has been mixed. While her supporters praised her for “calling out fake social outrage” and “defending the Mega family’s honor,” others criticized her for “glorifying old-fashioned ideas.” Nonetheless, the video trended within hours of release, especially among Mega fans who felt vindicated by her passionate words.
Some viewers commented that Sahasra Aunty has become “the voice of the unapologetic public” — someone who says what many think but few dare to express. Others viewed her comments as entertaining performance rather than serious social commentary. Either way, her clip has once again dominated fan circles, bringing humor and fire to a sensitive topic.
Gender and Family in Public Discourse
The debate reignited by Sahasra Aunty reflects a broader tension in Indian public life: the line between tradition and modernity. On one side, older generations see family hierarchy and open gender wishes as natural; on the other, younger generations interpret such remarks through the lens of equality and representation.
Sahasra Aunty’s passionate defense falls squarely on the traditionalist side, but her delivery — sharp, humorous, and unfiltered — also reveals how street-level commentary often carries more emotion than policy-level nuance. She doesn’t justify patriarchy; she celebrates family affection as she sees it, rejecting what she calls “social media noise.”
The Return of “Public Aunty” Culture
What makes Sahasra Aunty’s videos viral is not just the content — it’s her style. Her mix of blunt Telugu idioms, comic timing, and emotional storytelling resonates with audiences who crave “real talk.” Over the past few months, she has emerged as a recurring face in Telugu Vaadi TV’s vox pop coverage, gaining her own cult following.
Whether discussing Bigg Boss, politics, or celebrity families, her candid opinions have made her an unlikely internet personality — part critic, part entertainer, and wholly original. With her latest remarks on Upasana and Chiranjeevi, she has once again proven that in today’s social media landscape, raw emotion often speaks louder than scripted narratives.
Conclusion
Sahasra Aunty’s defense of Chiranjeevi may divide opinions, but it undeniably reflects how deeply personal and cultural the discussion of family and gender remains in Indian public life. To some, her comments are a refreshing reminder of old-school values; to others, they’re a call to reflect on evolving social norms.
As rumors swirl about Upasana’s second pregnancy and the Konidela family stays silent, one thing is certain — Sahasra Aunty’s voice has once again captured public imagination, mixing satire, emotion, and social commentary in a way few can match.
