Naga Chaitanya speaks up on caste discrimination and gender issues

Naga Chaitanya will be seen next in Love Story on September 24. Love Story stars Sai Pallavi opposite Naga Chaitanya and is directed by Sekhar Kammula. Instead of taking the OTT route, Love Story will be released in theatres. “I am confident about the film’s success, but a little bit nervous about the theatrical response. I believe that the family audience will throng to the theatres if we give them good content. This trend was observed after the first wave of Covid-19. I hope that the same magic will repeat,” the actor told a leading daily.

Naga Chaitanya also revealed that the movie touches on caste discrimination and gender issues. “People are wary about addressing these elements openly in society. When we address these issues through cinema, the reach is much more. The film is a realistic love drama, and it revolves around a lower caste boy who comes to a city from a village. What kind of challenges does he face there? What are the hurdles he faces when he falls in love with an upper caste girl?” Chaitanya said.

The actor was also asked about film industries expanding into each other with many artistes going for a Pan Indian movie instead of sticking to their own industry.  I have no idea about the pan-India market of films. Our Telugu culture is strong, and I feel that the regional sensibilities get diluted if we change a few points to make one subject suit pan-India. My focus is always on Telugu, and if I get a good opportunity to work in Hindi, I will attempt that. I got the opportunity of Laal Singh Chaddha magically, and everything happened organically. It was a great learning experience for me to spend nearly 50 days with Aamir Khan,” he said.
