South star Ram Charan and Jhanvi Kapoor’s film ‘Peddi’ is performing well at the box office, but controversy arose over Jhanvi’s character being shown excessively bold in the film.
After the audience’s protest, the film’s director Buchi Babu Sana has confirmed that all the controversial scenes have been removed from the film. In an interview given to Indian Express, he admitted that some scenes of the film were misleading.
Earlier, Buchi Babu had apologized publicly on social media.

The audience says that the film has focused more on the physical appearance of Jhanvi Kapoor’s character rather than the story.
Director Buchi Babu Sana gave clarification Seeing the growing controversy, director Buchi Babu Sana presented his side in the interview. He said, ‘Many people misunderstood Jhanvi Kapoor’s track. The main character in this film comes from a very backward hilly area. I wanted to show the straightforwardness of his character and the environment there. He wants to marry the girl he loves. In the process, some scenes were giving wrong messages. We have rectified our mistake and removed those scenes from the film.

He had written, ‘I have always had great respect for women on and off screen. It was not our intention to show any female character in a bad light.
