What Happened?
At the trailer launch of DJ Tillu, the entire team including producer Naga Vamsi were answering questions from the media. When it is Siddhu Jonnalagadda’ term, a journalist asked an insensitive question regarding Neha, in reference to a dialogue from the trailer of DJ Tillu.

Do Not Judge Actors In Real Life
Siddhu revealed that he was deeply hurt but chose not to lose temper. “An actor, especially a woman, works really hard during intimate scenes, which takes a lot of courage. A technician holds light right in their face.” he continued. Siddhu also affirmed that all actors deserve respect for being courageous and not to be spoken to in a demeaning manner. He appealed to everyone not to judge the actors in real life, for what they do on screen.
