A while back, Megastar Chiranjeevi inaugurated a cancer center in Hyderabad, During his speech, Chiru mentioned that cancer could be prevented if people undergo regular medical tests. Also, he stated that he had undergone a colonoscopy, post which doctors removed non-cancer polyps.

Chiru added that if he had not undergone the test, cancer would have developed and thus stressed the need for regular checkups. But, unfortunately, these words of Megastar were taken in the wrong way by a few who wrote that Chiranjeevi survived cancer after getting treated.

Hence Chiru took to his Twitter and clarified to all his fans that he had just mentioned the need for regular health checkups and screenings. He further asked the journos not to write such nonsense things as he received many calls from his well-wishers who got worried about his health.
