Nandu Breaks Down, Cries During Trailer Launch For This

Shree Nandu, mostly seen in anchoring or supporting roles, caught everyone off guard today at the trailer launch of Psych Siddhartha. The trailer itself is already making waves, for its raw, wild, and hilarious in parts, and Nandu’s performance, especially his meme-worthy moments, has fans talking.

In the film, he plays Siddharth Reddy, a guy whose big dreams of being the next Jeff Bezos or Elon Musk crash hard after betrayal. He ends up in a tiny slum apartment and reacts to everything in over-the-top ways. It’s chaotic, funny, and kind of heartbreaking at the same time.

And with Varun Reddy directing, K. Prakash Reddy on cinematography, and Smaran Sai’s music, the film has a raw, edgy vibe.

At the launch, standing alone as the lead after so many years, Nandu suddenly choked up. “This is not a PR stunt,” he said, fighting back tears. He explained that someone reminded him it’s been 19 years since he entered the industry, and the weight of that hit him right there on stage. He handed the mic back, speechless, leaving the audience quietly moved.

It was one of those moments that reminded everyone how tough the film world can be, talent isn’t always enough, and the struggle can be long. With Psych Siddhartha releasing on December 12, people are now curious not just about the film, but whether this project will finally give Nandu the big break he’s been waiting for all these years.
