Rajendra Prasad Counter To Critics
By: Tupaki Desk | 24 Dec 2017 5:40 AM GMTWhen the government of AP announced the list of the winners for Nandi Awards, a controversy has popped up! A lot of actors opened up about the non-transparency attitude from the jury in the selection of the winners. A director also came in front of the media and opened up that Nandi Awards should be renamed as Cycle awards. Slowly, everyone became silent and the people have ignored the issue.
Now, senior actor Rajendra Prasad opened up on the same issue. Though he did not stress much on the awards, he commented on those who criticise the jury while selecting the awardees belonging to parallel cinema. Rajendra Prasad made these comments during a film event related to an upcoming movie Bevars.
"Parallel cinema is very popular in Malayalam and Marathi industries. A lot of people express an opinion that it does not exist in TFI. They also expressed that the actors like Mohanlal and Mammootty always show interest in acting in those movies. But, I would clarify to them that a lot of new movies have come in Telugu. NTR and ANR have been a part of Parallel Cinema. I also did the films like Aa Naluguru and Mee Sreyobhilashi.for which I was awarded Nandi." told Rajendra Prasad.
