Buchi Babu Sana reacts to Peddi kiss controversy. Ram Charan's Peddi directed by Buchi Babu Sana is getting rave reviews at the box office. While everyone is praising Ram Charan's terrific performance, at the same time they blasted the director for objectifying the female lead Janhvi Kapoor.

Following intense trolls on social media, Buchi Babu Sana came up with the following clarification and explanation.

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.

After reviewing the feedback, we have decided to make changes to the concerned portions. Cinema grows through its connection with audiences, and as storytellers, we have a responsibility to be mindful of evolving perspectives and sensitivities.

Every woman deserves to be respected, valued, and represented with dignity. We remain committed to telling stories that celebrate strong characters and uphold those values.

Thank you to everyone who shared their views honestly and sincerely."
