First of all, Shruti Hasan is well utilized by producers of ‘Balupu’ to market their film. With Raviteja as main face, definitely there was a sudden drop in interests of distributors and exhibitors thus pushing the trade of movie into backseat. In order to pull the attention of businessmen, director Gopichand Malineni first released the posters of Shruti in spicy look with skimpy costumes and lots of skin show. First wicket to fall was of Dil Raju who bagged the Nizam rights immediately.
Few days left for release, a video footage of ‘Balupu’ with Brahmanandam and Shruti dancing on ‘Gangnam’ style is going viral. While some see this as a publicity stunt by the inner members of ‘Balupu’ team, others say it’s a clear leaked footage by other sources. Anyways, once again ‘Balupu’ is back in focus with this video link and wish that Brahmi, Shruti will combine to save their producer.
