The year 2024 wraps and one Telugu film had a peculiar situation. Nikhil Siddhartha, the hero of a film, completely disowned the project but was forced to promote it due to a contractual obligation with Prime Video.
Appudo Ippudo Eppudo had been shelved for a while but was pushed into theaters as part of the deal.
Nikhil and the director, Sudheer Varma, had to give interviews and post promotions on their social media pages, pretending to be excited about the release.
In reality, they were reluctant and had already distanced themselves from the project.
The movie had a limited theatrical release and turned out to be an outdated mess, unfitting for 2024.
Surprisingly Sudheer Varma, who had previously worked with Nikhil on a few films, delivered an outright disaster this time. Forcing them to promote such a boring and painful film made the whole situation painfully awkward for everyone involved.
