Police booked Sri Reddy for the act under Section 294 of the Indian Penal Code (obscene acts in any public place).

The actress was protesting in front of the Telegu Film Chamber of Commerce at the posh Banjara Hills here.

A video clip in her twitter handle showed her handing over her bag to a lady and then beginning to remove her clothes.
