Pragya Jaiswal has landed in a social media controversy after her post for Nagarjuna on his birthday. The actress shared a video wishing Nagarjuna on his birthday, but it was the audio used in the post that caught the attention of netizens. The clip featured an old dialogue of Akkineni Nageswara Rao addressing Nagarjuna, leading to a wave of trolling. The post quickly went viral, with many questioning the choice of audio. Some social media users felt that the dialogue did not suit a birthday wish and turned the otherwise simple post into a talking point. There was also confusion over whether Pragya was aware of the full context of the audio when she used it.
The actress eventually removed the audio from the post. Some users also noticed that the original story was deleted and another version was posted later. The incident has now become a discussion on social media, with several users making memes and trolling Pragya over the selection. Pragya Jaiswal has worked with Nagarjuna earlier in Om Namo Venkatesaya, directed by K Raghavendra Rao. The film featured Nagarjuna in the lead along with Anushka Shetty, Saurabh Jain and Pragya.
Nagarjuna is celebrating his birthday today and is currently working on his 100th film, which is being directed by Ra Karthik. The film is being produced by Annapurna Studios, with Tabu playing an important role. The glimpse that is out today received decent response.
