It should never make anyone feel uncomfortable or disrespected. We’ve heard the feedback regarding certain scenes in Peddi<\/em> and have taken it seriously,” he wrote on X.<\/p>\n The film has faced criticism from viewers and commentators who argued that Janhvi Kapoor\u2019s character lacked depth despite being certainly one of the central figures within the story. Several social media users also questioned the way in which certain scenes were filmed, alleging that the camera repeatedly focused on parts of the actor’s body slightly than the emotional context of the scenes.<\/p>\n One other major point of criticism involved the romantic track between the lead characters. Some viewers objected to scenes that appeared to portray non-consensual behaviour as romance, sparking discussions online about representation and storytelling in mainstream cinema.<\/p>\n Addressing these concerns, Buchi Babu clarified that disrespecting women was never the intention behind the film. “I actually have at all times had immense respect for ladies, each on and off screen, and it was never our intention to objectify or disrespect any female character. If any a part of the film has been perceived that way, we respect those sentiments, understand the concerns being raised, and sincerely apologize,” he stated.<\/p>\n The director further revealed that the team had reviewed the feedback and decided to make changes. “After reviewing the feedback, now we have decided to make changes to the concerned portions,” he wrote.<\/p>\n Buchi Babu also reflected on the evolving relationship between filmmakers and audiences. He acknowledged that audience responses play a crucial role in shaping cinema and stressed the responsibility storytellers carry. “Cinema grows through its reference to audiences, and as storytellers, now we have a responsibility to be mindful of evolving perspectives and sensitivities.”<\/p>\n As a filmmaker, I consider cinema should entertain, encourage, and connect with audiences. It should never make anyone feel uncomfortable or disrespected.
