Nani's "Hi Nanna" pre-release event took place today. It's unclear whose idea it was within the team, but it seems to have been deliberately planned.
A picture was displayed on the screen showing Vijay Devarakonda and Rashmika together in a pool, a photo circulating on social media. This is apparently a private moment, and there's no public announcement about them getting married.
In such a situation, displaying the picture on the screen and asking for a comment seems inappropriate. To add to that, Nani and Mrunal Thakur were in the front row of the event, visibly amused and laughing at the picture.
It's known that fans of Vijay Devarakonda and Nani aren't on good terms with each other. This incident appears to be a deliberate attempt to attract attention from fans of other heroes to promote Nani's film.
A netizen wrote: -"Cheap promotional stunts from HiNanna Team. Fans emo hero ni Personal ga Tag chesi Abuse cheyadam. Hero emo Ma #VijayDeverakonda and #RashmikaMandanna personal life ni Events lo use cheyadam. Endhuku ra babu e cheap stunts. collections ravali ante ma hero personal life lagadam".
Another netizen mentioned, "It is okay to take the help of other heroes for promotions, but dragging their personal lives is really cheap."
Other post is like this- "It's still unclear whether Nani was aware of this in advance. His sinister laugh is raising suspicions that it might have been orchestrated at his behest".
We have to see how Nani reacts to all this stuff.
