Anshu Ambani Responds to Trinadha Rao Nakkina’s Apology for Size Comments, says He Treated Her Like Family

Anshu Ambani Responds to Trinadha Rao Nakkina's Apology After Controversial Comments on Her Body Size

Actor Anshu Ambani has addressed the controversy surrounding director Trinadha Rao Nakkina’s recent remarks about her body size at the teaser launch of their upcoming film, Mazakka. Nakkina’s comments, which he made in jest, were met with heavy backlash, leading to the director issuing a public apology.

At the teaser launch, Nakkina had commented on Anshu’s appearance, saying, “Does she still look the same as she did in her Manmadhudu days? She’s a bit thinner now. I told her to eat and gain weight because, for Telugu cinema, it’s not enough—she needs to be a bigger size. She’s improved a bit now, and by next time, she’ll improve even more.” These comments quickly sparked criticism, especially from women’s groups, prompting the Telangana State Women’s Commission to issue a notice to Nakkina.

In response to the backlash, Nakkina issued a heartfelt apology, expressing regret for his comments. He stated, “I came to know that several women were uncomfortable with my statements made during the teaser launch of Mazakka. I call it unfortunate, as they were not planned. I made those comments in jest, hoping to make everyone laugh. However, if these remarks have hurt you, this is my mistake. I would like to issue a heartfelt apology, as they were objectionable. I will also personally apologise to Anshu.”

While acknowledging the apology, Anshu Ambani chose to downplay the controversy, expressing her support for the director. In a video shared on social media, Anshu clarified, “I really want to assure you all that he’s the loveliest man on the planet. He really is, and I believe his words may have been taken out of context. He has treated me as a member of his family. I’ve worked on this movie for 60 days, and I have been given nothing but respect, love, and lots of good wishes.”

Anshu urged her fans to move beyond the controversy and focus on the film itself. “I’m so excited about the movie and I feel we should all watch the film for the right reasons. Trinadha has been an absolute pleasure to work with. I could not have asked for a better director to bring me back to the Telugu film industry, and I’m very grateful that he has been guiding me through this process and I have nothing but just love and gratitude for him and the entire team,” she added.

Anshu Ambani, who rose to fame in the early 2000s with hits like Manmadhudu and Raghavendra, had stepped away from acting after her marriage. Mazakka marks her return to the screen after nearly two decades, with the film directed by Trinadha Rao Nakkina.

The controversy surrounding Nakkina’s remarks has now settled, with both the director and actor expressing mutual respect for one another. Fans of the actor are now focusing on the upcoming release of Mazakka, eagerly awaiting her return to the big screen.
