Meanwhile, Peddi has also been making headlines over the controversy surrounding certain scenes featuring Janhvi Kapoor. A section of the audience criticised the film for what they described as the objectification of her character. Following the backlash, director Buchi Babu Sana issued a public apology and confirmed that the contentious portions of the film would be modified.
“As a filmmaker, I believe cinema should entertain, inspire, and connect with audiences. It should never make anyone feel uncomfortable or disrespected. We have heard the feedback regarding certain scenes in Peddi and have taken it seriously. I have always had immense respect for women, both on and off screen, and it was never our intention to objectify or disrespect any female character. If any part of the film has been perceived that way, we respect those sentiments, understand the concerns being raised, and sincerely apologize,” he wrote on X.
