Actor Divi Vadthya, of Bigg Boss Telugu 4-fame, played a supporting role in Sukumar’s Allu Arjun, Rashmika Mandanna, and Fahadh Faasil-starrer Pushpa 2: The Rule. On the Visual Talks Podcast, she stated that she regrets starring in the film because what she was pitched was different from what the film ended up being.
Divi Vadthya is very disappointed with role in Pushpa 2
Divi was asked if she’s happy with how her role turned out in Pushpa 2, and she replied, “Not at all. When it was pitched to me, I was told that it would be a big role. Because a teaser (Where is Pushpa?) was dropped with my character. After that, I, too, had high expectations for my role in the film. But when the film was released, I realised that’s not happening.”
When asked if she regretted starring in the film, she replied, “Yeah, I felt bad. But who will care about my pain? You just have to pat yourself on the back and move on. I felt very bad after watching the movie. I took ten friends along to the theatre because I thought it would be so good. I know I dubbed for the film for 10 days and shot for 20 days. I know I acted really well. But I was shocked after watching the film.”
