Chikiri Video Release: What’s Peddi’s Plan?
The makers have also released the Hallallala video song that features Shruti Haasan and Janhvi Kapoor alongside Ram Charan on Tuesday.
Right now Ram Charan’s “Peddi” has collected ₹394+ crores gross in its 11 days of run at the worldwide box office, if the numbers coming from the production house, Vriddhi Cinemas, are anything to go by. However, one plan that’s coming from the production house has stunned everyone, as they are talking about it a lot.
At a time when everyone is blasting the director of Peddi and the makers of the movie for portraying Janhvi Kapoor in such a sultry avatar, the makers of Peddi released the full video song of “Chikri” the other day on YouTube. Many are wondering if this is a plan to cook the controversy further such that the footfalls for the film stay steady at theatres.
Though the controversy got a bit cooled down after Buchi Babu tendered an apology the other day, after lyric writer Anantha Sriram commented that these types of comments on directors are going to affect the creative freedom in the coming days, the issue kicked up again. Now that Chikri song’s video is out, there will be many more screenshots of Janhvi’s looks on social media, and Peddi will be up for a discussion once again.
The makers have also released the Hallallala video song that features Shruti Haasan and Janhvi Kapoor alongside Ram Charan on Tuesday. Some reports are coming up that releasing the video songs might create huge buzz for the film among the masses, and those who can’t get enough of them watching on their mobile screens might rush to the theatres.
Despite criticism and controversy, Peddi is being hailed for Ram Charan's performance, while the outrage of some critics has in fact created more attention for the movie.
