The Sreeleela-Amruta Controversy: How a Video Clip Lied to Netizens
Ustaad Bhagat Singh with Pawan Kalyan and Parasakthi with Sivakarthikeyan are Sreeleela's movie releases this year.
A few seconds of video can mislead millions. That is what nearly happened following a yoga event in Mumbai on International Yoga Day. A short clip went viral, apparently showing Amruta Fadnavis, wife of Maharashtra CM Devendra Fadnavis, gesturing at actress Sreeleela to move away during a photo session. But the full video told a different story.
The photographers themselves had requested separate photographs of Amruta Fadnavis with her daughter. Sreeleela was simply stepping aside so that a mother-daughter picture could be taken.
The paparazzi played a central role here. Crowded public events routinely involve organizers and attendees adjusting positions for photographs. Camera crews chase angles. What gets filmed is rarely the full moment. Negativity spreads faster than correction. Neither Sreeleela nor Amruta Fadnavis commented on the controversy.
Ustaad Bhagat Singh with Pawan Kalyan and Parasakthi with Sivakarthikeyan are Sreeleela's movie releases this year. Last year, she was seen in Mass Jathara, Junior, and Robinhood.
