&nbsp;Lavanya Tripathi, wife of Mega Prince Varun Tej, speaking to scribes, shared&nbsp; &ldquo;As a single woman and no family background, sometimes there&rsquo;s no one to help you. So, you&rsquo;re like, okay, what can I do? There was a time, there was a movie in Tamil which I was supposed to do. And I felt something was not right with the director. Maybe, I can be wrong but I just didn&rsquo;t feel comfortable and nenu no cheppesanu (I said no). After that, they kind of put a case on me and they were putting out wrong articles about me in the newspaper.&rdquo;\r\nShe continued &ldquo;Nenu ipudu cheptunanu, gaani aa time ki nenu evariki cheppaledu. Nenu evariki help adagaledu (I am talking about it now, but back then, I told this to no one or ask for anyone&rsquo;s help). But because of that pressure, one day I just came home, and I was just crying. Normally, I don&rsquo;t cry. After crying, I got up, made myself some tea and chilled. Crying is good, no problem, but I have faced such situations. All these times, they make you very strong,&rdquo;\r\nShe added , &ldquo;All I did was say no because I wasn&rsquo;t comfortable working with the person. They troubled me a lot afterwards, too. If you&rsquo;re going through hell, keep going.&rdquo;\r\nLavanya is currently awaiting the release of her upcoming film Sathi Leelavathi directed by Sathi Leelavathi.&nbsp;

Netizens troll Pawan Kalyan after Ustaad Bhagat Singh trailer. Pawan Kalyan's Ustaad Bhagat Singh directed by Harish Shankar is releasing on 19 March 2026. The makers released the film's trailer yesterday and the fans of Pawan Kalyan are over the moon with the powerful portrayal of Pawan Kalyan as a tough police officer.
Even Chiranjeevi, brother of Pawan Kalyan showered praises on the trailer and wished the makers all the best. But netizens trolled Pawan Kalyan for the following similarities.
In the UBS trailer, Pawan&rsquo;s character holds a gun and delivers a punchline while dressed in a monochrome outfit with an intricate belt buckle.

Sharing pictures from both scenes, one X (formerly Twitter) user wrote, &ldquo;Edi OG , Edi UBS ra (Is this OG or UBS?).&rdquo; One even posted a clip from both UBS and OG with Pawan firing a gun in the costume, writing, &ldquo;Which one is OG and which one is UBS ? #JustAsking,&rdquo; in response to an X user joking, &ldquo;same same but different.&rdquo;
&ldquo;For a moment, I thought Harish Shankar reused some shots from OG,&rdquo; wrote an X user, posting pictures of both scenes, while another slammed the makers, writing, &ldquo;Edi UBS Edi OG raa..Monna #Rajasaab ippudu #UBS Mareee prekshakulni granted ga teeskuntunnaru&hellip;(Which one is USB and which one is OG? First, the Raja Saab, now USB, you are taking the audience for granted).&rdquo;
Numerous others commented about the repeat of the costume, taking style and acting in the scene, writing posts like, &ldquo;Orayya sudden ga chusi OG anukunna kada ra #UstaadBhagatSingh (I saw this suddenly and thought it was OG #UstaadBhagatSingh).&rdquo; One X user even joked, &ldquo;Og Editing lo miss ayina shots teesukocchi UBS lo pettadu harish anna (Harish brother used shots in USB that were cut in OG editing).
