Producer Naga Vamsi addresses controversy following viral remarks about Pushpa 2 and Bollywood.
Naga Vamsi, a prominent Telugu cinema producer, recently found himself in the spotlight after his comments about Pushpa 2 allegedly causing “sleepless nights” for Bollywood sparked online debates. His remarks, made in response to a comment by veteran producer Boney Kapoor, quickly gained traction, leading to widespread trolling.
In an effort to address the controversy, Naga Vamsi released a statement clarifying his stance. “I am being trolled a lot, and I want to clarify that I did not intend to offend anyone. As a Telugu cinema producer, I simply praised our Telugu film, which has set new records at the box office,” he explained.
He further added, “Who am I to disrespect Boney Kapoor ji, a legendary producer? The way I sat, spoke, and my words have been misinterpreted. After the interview, Boney ji and I spent a lot of time discussing important matters but no one highlighted them. These trolls exist only online, and I don’t have much more to say about it.”
The situation stems from growing anticipation around Pushpa 2, the sequel to the 2021 blockbuster Pushpa: The Rise, which has been touted as one of the most awaited Indian films. Vamsi’s remarks were perceived as a dig at Bollywood, but his clarification emphasizes respect for industry veterans like Boney Kapoor.
