Recently, a still of Akhil Akkineni’s new film ‘Hello’ had leaked on social media days before makers officially announced the film’s title and first look poster. This led to wild speculations that makers leaked the still intentionally to create hype for their film.
Responding to the same, film’s producer Akkineni Nagarjuna condemned the accusation of leaking the still on purpose and said that they didn’t need such cheap tricks to create hype for their film. He also disclosed what actually happened and who was responsible for the leak.
“Director Vikram Kumar sent the still to his friend in Hong Kong for poster design purpose. He was the guy who designed the posters of “Manam”. He then shared it with his girlfriend on social media, and that’s how it got leaked,” he clarified.
Continuing further, Nag said that he generally gets good ideas in the early morning and that he got the idea of naming the film ‘Hello’ one fine morning. ‘Everyone liked it and we made it the official title,’ he added.
‘Hello’ is slated to release worldwide on December 22.
