As makers dropped a new song “Dheere Dheere” from Devara starring Jr NTR and Janhvi Kapoor, not everyone was pleased with what they saw.
While some called out the pair for looking uncomfortable with each other while romancing and dancing to a peppy romantic number.
Others found them odd together as they commented things like “zero chemistry”, “Jr NTR looks like her big brother”, “not looking good together”.
But what drew our attention the most was the conversation around Janhvi’s choice of dress, her dance moves and her being cast in a predominantly South Indian film with majority of the cast from the southern part of the country.
There were comments like, “Saree made vulgar by Janhvi”, “why does she get so many films”, “she’s so mediocre”, “go learn how to act” and even more disturbing things like, “why is she showing her skin so much”, “vulgar dance” among other vile things.
The dance video is choreographed by Bosco Martis and Caesar Gonsalves, Kausar Munir serves as the lyricist and Shilpa Rao as singer. Anirudh Ravichander has scored the music for the upcoming film. Devara stars Jr NTR and Janhvi Kapoor in pivotal roles. Saif Ali Khan plays antagonist in the film.
