Actress Faces Backlash Over Dance Comparison
South Indian actress Keerthy Suresh has found herself at the center of a controversy after making comments comparing the dancing abilities of two legendary actors. The incident occurred as her upcoming film 'Revolver Rita' approaches its release date, putting the actress in the spotlight for reasons beyond her cinematic work.
The Apology and Clarification
During a recent media interaction, Keerthy Suresh directly addressed the growing backlash from fans. She expressed regret if her words had caused any hurt to Chiranjeevi's devoted fanbase. 'If my words hurt Chiranjeevi's fans, I am sorry', the actress told gathered media representatives on November 27, 2025.
The controversy began when Keerthy apparently stated that Tamil superstar Vijay was a better dancer than Megastar Chiranjeevi. This comparison did not sit well with fans of both actors, particularly Chiranjeevi's massive fan following who hold the veteran actor in high esteem for his iconic dance moves that have entertained audiences for decades.
Maintaining Respect for Both Legends
In her clarification, Keerthy Suresh emphasized that she never intended any disrespect toward either actor. She maintained that both Vijay and Chiranjeevi remain legendary figures in her eyes, and her admiration for both stars remains completely unchanged despite the recent controversy.
The actress made a heartfelt appeal to fans, asking them to understand the context of her remarks and recognize that no disrespect was intended. She acknowledged the emotional connection fans have with their favorite stars and expressed sensitivity toward those feelings.
As 'Revolver Rita' prepares for release, the timing of this controversy could potentially impact the film's reception. However, Keerthy's prompt response and sincere apology demonstrate her awareness of fan sentiments and her commitment to maintaining positive relationships within the industry and with audiences.
