Director Anil Ravipudi has built a strong track record in Telugu cinema, delivering successful films while completing them within relatively short schedules and controlled budgets. This approach has earned him a solid reputation among filmmakers and audiences alike.
A recent video of the director interacting with a fan has now gone viral on social media.
In the video, a fan approaches Ravipudi and attempts to touch his feet. Ravipudi immediately steps aside and appears visibly uncomfortable with the gesture.
He questions why the fan should touch his feet, pointing out that he is neither an elderly person nor a spiritual figure.
Ravipudi then tells the fan that touching the feet of parents and elders is appropriate, but there is no need to show the same kind of reverence to cinema personalities.
The video has sparked discussion on social media, with many netizens supporting Ravipudi’s response.
His straightforward reaction to the fan’s gesture has been widely appreciated, with many viewing it as a reminder that celebrities need not be treated with excessive reverence.
