Netizens slam Nandamuri Balakrishna as he recreates Dabidi Dibidi steps with Urvashi Rautela at success party, a user says, "she is uncomfortable"

Nandamuri and Urvashi

Actress Urvashi Rautela is currently in the eye of a social media storm following a video featuring her and South superstar Nandamuri Balakrishna, which went viral after being shared to celebrate the success of their recent film Daaku Maharaj. The clip shows the duo recreating the viral hook step of the song "Dabidi Dibidi" from the film, but the moment quickly attracted attention for its awkwardness, especially Urvashi's visibly uncomfortable demeanor during the dance.

In the video, Balakrishna's exaggerated attempts at performing the signature steps have raised eyebrows, leading to a wave of online criticism. Some users described his behavior as inappropriate, with several calling him a “tharki” (a term used to label someone as lewd or perverted). These reactions were directed mainly at the star's over-the-top performance, which many felt crossed a line in terms of appropriateness, especially given Urvashi’s visible discomfort.

Despite the backlash, Urvashi has chosen to remain focused on the positive aspects of the situation. She shared her gratitude for the immense success of the song and the film’s impressive ₹56 crore opening day. The song has amassed over 20 million views, which Urvashi proudly acknowledged. Notably, she refrained from commenting on the trolling, choosing instead to keep the tone positive by highlighting the movie's achievements.

This silence has fueled mixed reactions on social media. Many fans have come to Urvashi’s defense, emphasizing that she should not be blamed for the awkwardness of the moment. Some have praised her for handling the situation gracefully, while others have questioned why she agreed to participate in such a promotional video in the first place.
