Chiranjeevi reacts to cancer rumours; says, “Don’t write nonsense without understanding the subject”

Megastar Chiranjeevi was recently a target of speculations of having cancer. Now, he took to his Twitter account and reacted to the rumors. He stated that he had never had cancer. Instead, Chiranjeevi revealed that non-cancerous polyps were diagnosed and promptly removed.

The megastar tweeted in Telugu, “A while ago I spoke about the need to raise awareness about cancer while inaugurating a cancer center. I said that cancer can be prevented if you undergo regular medical tests. I was alert and took a colon scope test.”

He further added, “I said that non-cancerous polyps were detected and removed. I only said, ‘If I hadn’t done the test first, it would have turned out to be cancer’. That’s why everyone should take precautions and undergo medical tests/screening’.”

His note read, “Some media organisations did not understand this and started publishing articles saying ‘I got cancer’ and ‘I survived due to treatment’. This has caused unnecessary confusion. Many well-wishers are sending messages about my health. This clarification is for all of them. Also an appeal to such journalists. Don’t write nonsense without understanding the subject. Because of this, many people are scared and hurt.”

On the professional front, the actor has been shooting for his upcoming action entertainer Bholaa Shankar with director Meher Ramesh.
