Vishwaksen’s team insults Arijit Singh; Actor apologizes

Vishwaksen is gearing up to entertain audiences with the action drama Mechanic Rocky. The movie, directed by debutant Ravi Teja Mullapudi, is set for a grand release tomorrow. Shraddha Srinath and Meenakshi Chaudhary played the female leads. The team arranged paid premieres in Hyderabad this evening.

A while ago, Vishwaksen participated in the interactive session, ‘Ask Rocky’ with his fans on X. A fan asked the actor when he would make Arijit Singh sing Telugu songs. Vishwaksen replied, “Vaadu paadinappudu.” (Addressing Arijit Singh in a disrespectful manner). This didn’t sit well with the netizens who came down on Vishwaksen.

After some time, the reply was deleted from Vishwaksen’s account. Later the actor posted, “Mistake from the team. Reply deleted. Sincere apologies.” Though Vishwaksen stated it was his team who has made that comment, netizens are severely criticising the Damki actor. Many are commenting that the actor should be careful with his choice of words. The actor was recently criticised for using coarse language during Mechanic Rocky’s pre-release event.
