Vijayawada: Tollywood actor Prithviraj, who is known for his role as '30 years industry' was issued a non-bailable arrest warrant on Wednesday.
A local family court in Vijayawada issued the warrant in connection with a case filed by his wife Balireddy Srilakshmi demanding alimony.
In the past, the court asked Prithviraj to pay his wife Balireddy Srilakshmi Rs 8 lakh per month but he challenged it in the High Court.
In a big relief, the High Court ordered Prithviraj to pay Rs 22,000 per month and clear all outstanding dues since 2017.
However, he failed to obey the High Court orders and then his wife filed a petition in the family court.
The petition stated that Prithviraj did not appear in court and only issued a public notice in a newspaper regarding the case details.
The duo got married in 1984 and have a son and daughter.
Srilakshmi said that her family members supported Prithviraj in meeting his expenses when he travelled to Hyderabad and Chennai for opportunity in films. Despite this, she said that Prithviraj sent her out from his house on April 5, 2016.
