'Maar Muntha Chod Chinta' is the title of a dance number from the upcoming movie, 'Double iSmart'. Shot on Ram Pothineni and Kavya Thapar, the song makes a hilarious mention of former Telangana CM K Chandrasekhar Rao's meme-worthy 'Em Jeddamantav Mari' repartee. The same has now sparked a row.
As per news reports on Wednesday, two BRS leaders have approached the LB Nagar police urging that an FIR be filed against director-producer Puri Jagannadh. In a video released earlier, an angry local BRS leader was seen abusing Puri.
The controversy was expected. Most political parties in India are hyper-sensitive to the perceived trivialization of their leaders. KCR served Telangana as the CM for ten years.
For now, though, Puri has successfully managed to ensure free publicity for his song, which is otherwise not great. Set to tune by 'Melody Brahma' Mani Sharma, Rahul Sipligunj is one of the singers of the song. Incidentally, Rahul is a fan of KCR. He has previously participated in Bigg Boss Telugu.
'Double iSmart' is going to hit the screens on August 15.
