On september 18, a huge controversy broke out when andhra pradesh chief minister N chandrababu naidu asserted that tirupati laddus were made using pig fat during the previous administration when the state's chief minister was YS jagan Mohan Reddy. Reddy's party, the YSRCP, responded by accusing Naidu of using "heinous allegations" as a means of gaining political advantage. andhra pradesh IT minister and Chandrababu Naidu’s son, Nara Lokesh, stated that the lab tests clearly revealed that beef fat, fish oil, and lard were used to create laddoos.
During the Pre-Release event, an anchor asked karthi about 'Laddoos' and he said he didn't want to answer as it is a sensitive topic. But pawan kalyan blew this out of proportion and tried to milk it for his political gain and started religious politics. karthi also apologized even though he did 'Nothing'. This never went well among the tamil Netizens as they called Suriya and karthi as 'Spineless'. At the same time, prakash raj stood firm by his words.
“Dear @Karthi_Offl garu, I sincerely appreciate your kind gesture and swift response, as well as the respect you’ve shown towards our shared traditions. Matters concerning our sacred institutions, like
tirupati and its revered prasadam laddus, carry deep emotional weight for millions of devotees, and it’s essential for all of us to handle such topics with care,”
pawan kalyan wrote.
“That said, I
wanted to bring this to your notice with no intentions behind it, and I understand the situation was unintentional. Our responsibility as public figures is to foster unity and respect, especially regarding what we cherish most—our
culture and spiritual values. Let’s always strive to uplift these values while continuing to inspire through cinema. I would also like to express my admiration for you as a remarkable actor whose dedication and talent have consistently enriched our cinema,” he added.
