Chiranjeevi clarifies Acharya controversy
  • 16 Jan 2023 12:19 PM

Megastar Chiranjeevi has been in the news of late for all the wrong reasons. His recent comments, where he said directors should start to focus on their scripts and take the inputs of senior actors stirred up a controversy. 

A few media houses wrote that Chiranjeevi’s comments are aimed at Koratala Siva and he’s targeting the Acharya director with his indirect dig. 

Now, Chiru has clarified on these rumors and he came up with an affirmative statement on the reports pertaining to him having bad blood with Koratala Siva. 

“Not at all. My comments weren’t in the context of Acharya. I wasn’t targeting Koratala Siva in any which way. My comments at the recent event would be the same even if Acharya was super hit blockbuster.”

“I believe this generation directors should follow a packed screenplay format and budgeting module. My intention is to convey the same and never to target Siva,” Chiranjeevi said in this interview. 

Chiru has put an end to these speculations with this affirmative statement. He added that Bobby has followed a perfect budgetary trajectory and screenplay writing process for Waltair Veerayya.
