The premise of ‘Pratiroju Pandaage’ does have an uncanny resemblance to ‘Shatamanam Bhavati’, 2017 blockbuster movie that also won a national award.
A glance at the trailer would make us believe that he is ripping it off. So, in a clever trick, Maruthi has included dialogue in the trailer about Shatamanam Bhavati to avoid people drawing comparisons.
This trick seems to be working. However, that infamous ‘naakoddu’ TikTok video will attract the wrath of feminists and women groups. Srujna Naakoddu video went viral (full of adult content) some time ago.
At a time when the huge discussion is going on about the depiction of heroines in movies in the wake of Disha ghastly incident, Maruthi adding ‘naakoddu’ track, a double-meaning TikTok video, with Raashi Khanna may not go well with the sensible film lovers.
