Slip of Tongue or Intentional Ignorance?

Irrespective of the result and recognition it had brought, debut film is always special for actors. Isn’t Allu Arjun proud of his debut film ‘Gangothri’?

Last night, speaking at the audio release of his upcoming film ‘DJ’, Bunny said that he had started his career with ‘Arya’, which in fact is his second film. It is very rare for an actor to forget his debut film but Bunny looks to have conveniently ignored Gangothri. Over the years, he has rarely talked about that film.

Allu Arjun has evolved a lot over the years in terms of looks as well as style compared to his look in ‘Gangothri’. He may not be proud of his looks and the character he had essayed (he even featured in lady getup in a song) in Gangothri. Taking the negative feedback seriously, he underwent a remarkable transformation for his second film ‘Arya’, which has become a cult film.

Hence, Bunny may feel he has a justifiable reason not to talk about Gangothri and emphasize Arys on stage but netizens aren’t pleased, which is evident from the satires on him on social media.

Bunny’s fans however say it was just a slip of the tongue and that Bunny did not intentionally ignore Gangothri. If that was the case, why Bunny said that ‘Mirapakay’ was the debut film of director Harish Shankar, where ‘Shock’ (a huge flop) was first directorial, in reality, question neutral movie buffs.
