Comedian Pruthvi expressed his displeasure on the Nandi Awards selection process. 'There is disappointment. I was supposed to get Nandi Award for 'Khadgam' but missed it due to lobbying. Later, A Jury Member told Me about it. Kota once said - Konukunna Award Lu Manalni Apahasyam Chesthayi! Kaikala Satyanarayana didn't get Padma Shri. Mohan Babu didn't receive Nandi despite doing over 500 films,' he said.

The '30 Years Industry' Actor condemned the comment of Jury Members that his role in 'Loukyam' is a spoof and hence Award wasn't given to him. 'My Role in 'Loukyam' isn't a spoof. I play a TV Actor in the movie. I broke down while sitting before NTR's photo after the announcement of awards. These people talk about rules. Dasari got Best Actor award for 'Mamagaru' though its a remake. He received the same award for 'Mestri' though there are better films/performances in that year. 'Bava Bavamaridi' was given awards though its a dubbing flick. They say Awards can't be given for horror films. Then, why did they offer Award for Anjali. So, Nandi Awards were given as per the wish of Jury Members or influential people in the Government. Claps of Audience are the real Awards,' comments Pruthvi.

Pruthvi claims the response for his role in 'Loukyam' during the success tour was a memorable experience. Raghu Babu was the first person who told him that he would be getting Nandi Award for this movie. After the announcement of Nandi Awards, Many People on Social Media asked Pruthvi not to worry and assured him there are good days ahead.
