Recently, the media has been asking Telugu cinema stars some very personal and improper questions, which has led to some really terrible situations. The most recent scandal happened during the pre-release party for Tamil actor-director Pradeep Ranganathan's latest movie 'Dude'. A reporter asked a derogatory question that made both fans and movie stars angry.
Sarath Kumar's classy answer to a rude question
A reporter asked Pradeep Ranganathan at the 'Dude' pre-release event, "You're not a hero, but did you get lucky or work hard to get two movies?" Many people in the crowd and on social media didn't appreciate the question because it seemed to disrespect people and bodyshame them.
Sarath Kumar instantly gave a calm but straightforward explanation. "Everyone here is a hero." He said, "A hero is someone who does anything that helps society," and people really appreciated his answer and there was a huge applaud.
His calm demeanor and carefully chosen words not only cooled things down, but they also garnered him a lot of praise online for showing how to handle situations like this with grace.
Kiran Abbavaram comes forward to help
At the K-Ramp trailer premiere a few days later, the same reporter brought it up again. This time, Telugu actor Kiran Abbavaram stood up for Pradeep Ranganathan in a very strong way.
"It's not fair to go after an actor from a different field." You shouldn't keep asking questions like this. If you tell someone they're not a hero, it hurts them and everyone else who hears it. Kiran said then, "Let's not talk about those kinds of questions anymore," and both fans and reporters were thrilled.
A lot of people agreed with what he stated online, and admirers applauded him for staying calm and supporting another artist.
What Radhika Sarath Kumar said
A well-known actress named Radhika Sarath Kumar also spoke out against what the journalist said on social media. "Is this a real question?" She said, "Both Sarath and Pradeep handled it with grace," which showed how important it is to be nice when talking to the press.
A reporter asked Manchu Lakshmi what she was wearing, and she got upset. This is what happened. Call for respect
Both actors and fans have said maintained that the media is very important for shaping public opinion, but they feel that respect and decency should never be traded for great headlines.
Sarath Kumar, Kiran Abbavaram, and Radhika Sarath Kumar are famous people that show us that being rude is better than being courteous.
