Telugu star Nani recently found himself at the center of a controversy after lashing out at Bollywood actor Arshad Warsi for his remarks on Prabhas' performance in the upcoming film Kalki 2898 AD. Following a wave of reactions on social media, Nani has now expressed regret for his choice of words, acknowledging that the situation was blown out of proportion. A Change of Heart: Nani Reflects On His Words In a recent interview with Mid-Day, Nani clarified his earlier comments, admitting that his reaction was driven by his deep affection for Prabhas.
"When it’s about someone you love dearly, you naturally react and say, ‘Why give so much importance to an unimportant matter?’" Nani explained. However, after seeing the widespread reactions online, he revisited Warsi's full interview and realized that his own comments had been "blown out of proportion."
