The upcoming film “Hey Bhagavan,” featuring actor Suhas in the lead role, has been making waves online, particularly following the release of its viral trailer. Alongside Suhas, anchor and Bigg Boss fame Sravanthi plays a crucial role in the film, which is set to hit theaters on February 20. As part of the promotional activities, Sravanthi is actively participating in events to create buzz around the movie.
Recently, actor Shivaji’s comments regarding the attire of actresses sparked considerable controversy. In response to this, Sravanthi provided clarity on the selection of costumes for film events. “When we go to any film event, the choice of our costumes is typically decided by them. It’s not our choice to decide what kind of clothes to wear,” she explained. Sravanthi recounted a specific incident when she was told to wear a lungi for a movie event featuring actor Shree Vishnu. She humorously noted that she promptly bought a lungi and sunglasses for the occasion and wore them while anchoring the event. “If you say no, you won’t get opportunities. That’s why we don’t have an option in this matter,” she added.
Sravanthi further expressed that if given a choice, she would prefer to wear traditional attire. “I have participated in promotional events wearing sarees for several films. In fact, I have more than a thousand sarees in my collection,” she shared. This statement highlights her appreciation for traditional clothing and her commitment to embracing cultural attire during film promotions.
Addressing the comments made by actor Shivaji, Sravanthi acknowledged that while his remarks regarding actresses’ clothing were valid, he did mistakenly use two words inappropriately when discussing women. She stated that she does not support those words and emphasized the importance of respectful language. Sravanthi also recalled how Shivaji later publicly apologized for his comments, showcasing a commitment to open dialogue and understanding in the industry.
As “Hey Bhagavan” approaches its release date, the discussions surrounding attire and representation in the film industry continue to evolve. Sravanthi’s insights not only shed light on the pressures faced by actresses regarding their wardrobe choices but also highlight the ongoing conversations about respect and empowerment in the entertainment sector. With the film’s release just around the corner, audiences are eager to see how these dynamics play out on screen and what further discussions they may inspire in the future.
