Vaishnavi Chaitanya is among the few actresses from Hyderabad who have managed to find success and popularity in Telugu cinema. The industry has traditionally favoured actresses from Mumbai, Kerala, Bengaluru and Chennai, while Telugu girls often get supporting roles or lead roles in smaller-budget films rather than big-ticket projects.
Vaishnavi may not have signed many films, but she made a strong impression with hits like “Baby” and earned considerable popularity. However, she has lately become the target of a negative campaign.
Not only did her much-anticipated film “Epic” fail at the box office, but she also faced considerable trolling on social media.
Subsequently, several media outlets carried reports about her personal life, linking her to a Telugu film celebrity.
According to her close associates, Vaishnavi is quite upset with these rumours and the negative campaign against her. She is reportedly wondering why she has become a target, as she does not consider herself a threat or competition to any leading actor.
