Telugu superstar Mahesh Babu and his wife Namrata Shirodkar's daughter Sitara Ghattameneni has become a recent victim of cybercrime.

The statement was issued by the actor's production house, GMB Entertainment.
"The Madhapur police, in connection with Team GMB, have issued a warning about a cybercrime incident involving the impersonation of Ms Sitara Ghattamaneni on Instagram. An unidentified user has been fraudulently posing as Ms Ghattamaneni, sending trading and investment links to unsuspecting users,'' they wrote.
