Actress Urvashi Rautela has spoken out to defend her collaboration with veteran Telugu superstar Nandamuri Balakrishna. Despite the online backlash surrounding their song “Dabidi Dibidi” from the film Daaku Maharaaj, Rautela maintains that her time working with the actor was excellent. She described the experience as “really, really amazing” and expressed that she felt lucky to share the screen with a massive superstar.
Perspective on Viral Fan Interactions
Balakrishna frequently trends on social media for his intense and sometimes aggressive interactions with fans. Clips of him reacting sharply or even handling phones roughly have drawn widespread criticism. However, Rautela offered a contrasting take during her recent interview with Radio Nasha. She claimed that she had witnessed these moments firsthand and found them to be “fun” rather than offensive. According to the actress, the fans involved in these interactions often do not take offense and are happy to be noticed by the star.
Dispelling the ‘Angry’ Persona
Urvashi Rautela also aimed to shift the public narrative regarding Balakrishna’s “angry” image. She characterized the actor as being “very childlike,” “fun-loving,” and “super energetic.” She noted that the media perception of him being constantly aggressive does not reflect his true personality on set. Instead, she described him as a down-to-earth person who genuinely enjoys engaging with others, particularly when he is interacting with children.
