'Srimanthudu' Makes Urge Not To Make Premature Conclusions!

The legal battle regarding the story of 'Srimanthudu' is still going in court. As we know, this film written and directed by Koratala Siva had superstar Mahesh Babu playing the lead role. It was released in 2015 and became a blockbuster. The strong message about adopting villages connected with the audience. But the makers are now getting accused of lifting the story from a novel named 'Chachentha Prema'. With the issue getting bigger and louder, Mythri Movie Makers have released an official statement.

It says, “We address the discussion around Mr. Koratala Siva's 'Srimanthudu' amidst claims of similarity to the novel 'Chachentha Prema'. Both works, existing in the public domain, showcase distinct narratives with no overlap, a fact readily verifiable by those who examine the book and film. As the matter is currently under legal review, with no hearings or verdicts to date, we urge media and commentators to refrain from premature conclusions.”

They added, “We emphasize the importance of basing disclosure on informed comparison and legal outcomes. We stand firmly by the uniqueness of 'Srimanthudu' and our core idea of adopting a village and encourage whomever is interested to personally assess the two works. Our appeal is for patience and trust in the legal process, respecting the principles of fairness and integrity. Thank you for understanding and support.”

With the Mythri people making their stance clear, we need to see how things turn out in the coming days.
