Nickname trend in Tollywood

Looks like one of the famous trends in the Southern film industry is having strange nicknames and some of them are just too strange such as Dolly, Honey, Bujji etc. The really weird thing about Dolly is that it’s the nickname of director Kishore Pardhasani. He says that this was a name his family used to call him but it just stuck around and now everyone in the industry calls him that.
