Actor Mouli is busy promoting his film Songs Naa Koduku. During a recent interaction, Mouli got a question that, in past one of his comedy line became controversy in social media and whether that issue came to his notice.
When asked about these, Mouli said that he had seen the negative comments and felt hurt by them. He also said that he wondered whether it would be same, if those are the comments came from an actor who came from a well-known film family.
His comments have now raised questions about how young actors are treated in the film industry. While established stars often receive support from their fans, newcomers may find it difficult to deal with public criticism.
Mouli also shared an experience involving the media. He revealed that a media representative had invited him to an event. But he was suffering from a fever that day and informed them that he would not be able to attend.
He added then that person responded by asking him to think carefully about his decision and suggested that his next film might receive negative publicity if he did not attend. Mouli felt that this was an attempt to put pressure on him.
He also said that those people might assume young actors would become afraid when faced with such warnings. His comments once again shown the difficulties that newcomers may face while building their careers.
Mouli's statements have raised an important question: should young actors have to worry about negative publicity when they cannot attend an event? Also many are wondering will small heroes recieve such a black mailing.
