Chiranjeevi says had 'non-cancerous polyps' removed, calls out media for 'unnecessary confusion'
Hyderabad, Jun 4 (PTI) Veteran actor Chiranjeevi has criticised some media reports for causing "unnecessary confusion" about his health by misquoting his recent remarks about undergoing a medical procedure for the removal of "non-cancerous polyps".
Recently at the launch of a cancer care centre, the Telugu cinema star had said that he was able to prevent cancer by undergoing regular medical tests.
In a Twitter post on Saturday night, the 67-year-old actor said some media organisations did not understand him properly and published reports saying, "I got cancer and I survived due to treatment". "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'," Chiranjeevi wrote on the microblogging site.
