Puri Jagannadh trolled for supporting Balakrishna
Social media goes into a tizzy after director Puri Jagannadh glorifies Balakrishna's latest misdemeanor.
Actor Balakrishna’s friend and director of his upcoming film Paisa Vasool, Puri Jagannadh, seems to think that the former’s habit of bashing up fans is a good thing! So much so, that he actually glorified it at the audio launch of the film, calling it a ‘love story’. Since then, social media has been abuzz, with many trolling the duo for glorifying something abusive and calling it a ‘love story’.
Speaking at the music launch of their film in Khammam on Thursday, the director said, “All other heroes might need bouncers when they go out, but Balayya garu doesn’t! He can control his fans himself. When they fall on him, he hits them. And as he hits them, they love it and feel very happy about it. The media has no idea how much people enjoy it when he hits his fans.”
He added, “Balayya hits back only when common sense goes amiss. Remember that Balayya and his fans have this connection. When he hits his fans, it’s a love story! So don't take it seriously.”
Since then, social media has been abuzz with people trolling the duo, asking how love translates to physical abuse! One of posts said “Kottinchukunte ashirvadam. Tanninchukunte mahaprasadam. Ekanga champeste kumbhabhishekam. Idi kotha devudla vyavaharam.” (sic). Well, this sums up the irony behind the incident!
