The actor has been asked to appear at the ED office in Hyderabad on April 27.

Mahesh Babu has been the brand ambassador of the Green Meadows project of these companies.
Investigation of Mahesh Babu's links
Recently, the ED raided both these companies and the investors associated with them. This action was taken in posh areas of Hyderabad like Secunderabad, Jubilee Hills and Bowenpally. Sai Surya's owner Satish Chandra Gupta is facing serious allegations of fraud and forgery. According to a report in the Times of India, now the ED is investigating Mahesh Babu's role and his links in this matter. More revelations are expected in the case.

FIR against many celebrities
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has started tightening the noose against many famous personalities as part of the investigation into a major real estate scam. The ED suspects that illegal money laundering has been done through cash transactions. The matter came to light when the Telangana Police registered an FIR against many people including Bhagyanagar Properties Limited director Narendra Surana and Sai Surya Developers owner Satish Chandra Gupta.
The ED suspects that this entire network may be linked to money laundering. Now that Mahesh Babu's name has also surfaced in this case, there is an atmosphere of concern and questions among his fans. However, no official statement has been issued by the actor so far.
