There has been a lot of talk about the ongoing issues in the Manchu family. Actor Mohan Babu’s sons, Vishnu Manchu and Manchu Manoj, are not on good terms, while their sister, Lakshmi Manchu, has chosen to stay away from the matter, at least in public.
Recently, Vishnu Manchu’s wife, Viranica, spoke about the family dispute in an interview with NTV. She shared how the situation has affected their children and why she chooses to stay out of the conflict.
Viranica on How the Feud Affected Their Children
Vishnu and Viranica have four children – Ariaana, Viviana, Arya Vidya, and Avram. In the interview, Viranica said that her children are her top priority. She explained that every family goes through problems, but unfortunately, their issues became public.

“Every family has problems; it’s not just ours. The difference is that in most families, these problems don’t come out. In our case, everything came out in the open, and there is nothing we can do about it,” she said.
She also shared that the ongoing conflict has been harder on her children than on her. "I try my best to stay away from all this for my children’s sake. I take in everything like a sponge, but my actions always depend on what’s best for my kids. They were scared and worried about what was happening. If they need to stay mentally strong, I need to be strong for them," she added.
The Ongoing Manchu Family Dispute
Though there were rumors about problems between the brothers for some time, things became public in 2023. That year, Manoj shared a video where Vishnu was seen allegedly mistreating their staff. Later, Vishnu claimed that the video was part of a reality show they were working on called House of Manchus, but his siblings denied this claim.
The issue resurfaced in 2024 when their father, Mohan Babu, filed a complaint against Manoj and his wife, Bhuma Mounika. In his complaint, he said that he felt unsafe because of them. In response, Manoj alleged that some men had entered his house and attacked him, leaving him injured. He filed a police complaint about the incident a day later.
Manoj later accused his family of keeping him away and said that their educational institution was not being run properly.
For now, the conflict in the Manchu family continues, with no clear resolution in sight.
