Shobha Rani, chief of mega star Chiranjeevi led Praja Rajyam's women's wing Mahila Rajyam, has vehemently denied�media reports that she has recently married actor Prakashraj in Chennai in the presence of PRP leaders, stating that whole issue is a false story created by the media.

"It is far from true. I know Prakashraj. I met him at a shooting when I went there to meet a director�I knew. He is just an acquaintance. I too have received the pictures of my so-called wedding with Prakashraj and they are fake," Shobha Rani says, adding that she is involved in public life and has no time for such flings.
