Dance choreographer Shaik Jani Basha, popularly known as Jani Master, recently made his first public appearance at the pre-release event of the Telugu film Keshava Chandra Ramavath (KCR), which stars young actor Rocking Rakesh in the lead. He addressed the crowd and talked about going through a difficult time after being accused of sexual abuse by his former assistant. The choreographer was granted bail last month in the POCSO case.

Jani thanked his wife for standing by him during his time in jail. She told Rakesh, "A wife always stands with her husband for sure. Her power and her strength always support him. I emphasise 'for sure' because, recently, some things happened to me, and the way my wife stood by me like a pillar and was my backbone, I really thank her."

He added, "Not just her, but to all the wives supporting their husbands: because of your support that leads us in the right direction, we are able to achieve great positions."

While talking to the audience on stage at the event, Jani thanked everyone who had contributed to putting together an event like this for the film. He also thanked senior actor Roja for being present at the event and for supporting young actors like Rakesh. He mentioned that he chose to attend the event as he acknowledges the hard work put into making the film. As someone who has faced similar hardships to reach his position, he wishes to see other hardworking individuals succeed too.

Jani was been booked under multiple sections, including sections 376(2) (punishment for sexual assault), 506 (criminal intimidation), and 323 (punishment for voluntarily causing hurt) of the Indian Penal Code (IPC), as well as the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act, by the Narsingi police of Cyberabad, following a complaint filed against him on September 16, 2024.
