Mumbai: Fans are eagerly waiting for the Allu Arjun and Rashmika Mandanna-starrer ‘Pushpa: The Rise’.
Three days ahead of the film’s release, i’s song ‘Pheelings’ has left internet divided.
A section of netizens is of the opinion that the choreography of the song featuring Allu and Rashmika promotes vulgarity.
Here are some of the comments:
“How ? Just how did someone okay this!” wrote one user.
“This is making me so uncomfortable eww,” commented another.
“Bro this is embarrassing to even watch,” responded one person.
“These days choreography has become like a soft porn.. don’t understand why actress say yes to do this,” posted another user.
Another comment read: “Allu arjun is such a good dancer yaar why do they have to do this? Full chapri shit.”
Some users criticised South Indian dance numbers for their choice of costumes and choreography.
“People call out bollywood vulgar songs, bhojpuri vulgar songs but rarely the south Indian ones. They preach abt their culture yet make such crass songs but their rabid fan network is so strong that any opinion against them will get massively down voted. Nobody speaks abt the truth of tollywood” and “Why every south song , have some vulgar dance steps .. and hideous outfits,” expressed one person.
There were some who came out in support of South Indian movies saying that even Bollywood movies have vulgar item songs.
“Kiara’s bijlee bijlee song, Nora Fatehi’s most of the item songs, and Tamannah’s Aaj ki raat song and counting are also examples of vulgar dance steps in Bollywood as well,” one person pointed out.
“It’s not just about South songs.. Please take a look at some ‘north Indian’ item songs also before generalizing. Malaika and Katrina haven’t made millions for their acting chops,” posted another.
‘Pushpa: The Rise’ is a sequel to the blockbuster movie ‘Pushpa: The Rule’ which also starred Allu and Rashmika in lead roles.
