HYDERABAD, INDIA – Barrelakka (alias Sireesha), who gained widespread popularity in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh after a viral video criticizing the then-BRS government and subsequently contesting the Assembly elections as an independent candidate, is now pleading for an end to online harassment.
Barrelakka, who became a social media sensation for her outspoken criticism and subsequent political foray, recently released a tearful video detailing the relentless online trolling she has faced since her election loss and subsequent marriage. She explains that the intense trolling, which began after the elections, forced her to marry her partner sooner than planned.

She appealed for an end to the trolling, stating that the constant attacks have left her without happiness. The video has sparked a mixed reaction, with some showing support and others continuing the online harassment. The incident highlights the pervasive issue of online bullying and its impact on individuals, even those who have previously embraced the spotlight.
