Siddharth who once had a rousing career in Tollywood is nowhere seen in the industry today. He is restricted to the Tamil industry.
He has not had any disastrous runs at the box-office then why are producers not considering him anymore? Some people feel that Siddharth happens to be an outspoken person and the Telugu media was not happy with his comments against them.
Later Dil Raju brokered a peace between the media and Siddharth. But what is the actual reason behind his disappearance from Tollywood.
According to rumors floating in the industry, the reason could be Balakrishna Nandamuri. Siddharth had apparently commented at the audio launch of one of his films ‘180’ that Tamil directors were better than Telugu directors or that there were no path-breaking films or directors in Telugu. Anyway, it was something to that effect.
Balayya reportedly heard of this and called up Siddharth and warned him against making such remarks again. Balayya himself revealed this incident at an event but did not name the hero. But the media misinterpreted this and thought Balayya was referring to Ram Charan.
Another thing that might have worked against Siddharth is that he was very close to Junior NTR. “Junior NTR is the best dancer in India,” remarked Sidharth once. This friendship was obviously not to Balayya’s liking.
So, that’s the latest gossip from the industry folks! Did Balakrishna have a hand in Siddharth’s disappearance from Tollywood?
