Starring Anjan Ramachandra and Shravani as the leads, the recent movie ‘Love Reddy‘ arrived in theaters last week and received positive feedback. The chemistry between the leads and the climax particularly resonated with the audience. However, despite the positive reviews, the movie has been disappointing in terms of collections. In response, the movie team initiated a unique event titled ‘Blockbuster but Failure Meet’ to interact with audiences in theaters. During one of these visits, an unexpected incident occurred where a woman attacked a member of the acting team, and the video of this incident has gone viral.
Why Did the Attack Happen?
Despite the positive reception of ‘Love Reddy,’ the lack of box office collections led the movie team to undertake a unique initiative. They started visiting cinemas where the movie was playing to gather feedback directly from the audience. Recently, while the team was at GPR Mall in Nizampet, Hyderabad, an incident occurred. During the climax scene, where the heroine’s father (N.T. Ramaswamy) hits his daughter with a stone for not accepting the hero, a woman in the audience, overcome with emotion from the scene, attacks the actor playing the father role. This sudden outburst shocked everyone present. Efforts were made to calm the woman down, explaining that it was just a movie.
How is ‘Love Reddy’?
Directed by Smaran Reddy, ‘Love Reddy’ is a clean love story revolving around the theme of honor and dignity. Although it follows a routine storyline, it is presented naturally with an Andhra-Karnataka backdrop. The film starts with a matrimonial viewing scene and becomes more interesting as the hero transforms into ‘Love Reddy.’ However, his efforts to express his love seem quite routine. The curiosity of whether Divya will reciprocate Love Reddy’s feelings carries the first half. In the second half, the rejection of his love and the reasons stated connect well with today’s youth. The last 20 minutes are handled very emotionally by the director, culminating in a climax that weighs on the viewer’s heart. Overall, Director Smaran Reddy has made a significant mark with this film.

How did Divya’s entry turn Narayana Reddy’s life around? Does their love story have a happy ending? To find out, one must watch the movie.
