Kayadu Lohar admits to doing her own PR
Pradeep was scrolling through Kayadu’s phone when he revealed he found a ‘different app’ on her phone, stating it was a meme creation app. After looking shocked, Kayadu laughed and asked Pradeep not to ‘go there’. But he read out, “Kayadu Lohar is at the top of Telugu cinema,” ragging her about making memes about herself.
Director Ashwath Marimuthu also chipped in and explained, “She’s taking her own photo and putting - the next top heroine in Telugu cinema.” Even as she looked embarrassed, Pradeep kept ragging Kayadu in jest for making memes and sending them out to pages. She finally caved in and firmly said, “That’s called PR. If nobody’s doing it, you have to do it. Fake it till you make it.”
Later in the video, Ashwath commented about it again and said, “But isn’t it awkward? A girl creating her own memes.” He even joked that he’d make memes for her, while Pradeep chipped in and joked that she likes to “create and look at them” for her happiness. “In two months, there’ll be fan pages for you,” Pradeep joked, asking her to start a fan page for herself too.
