Hyderabad, Oct 16 (NationPress) Actor Siddhu Jonnalagadda, who stars alongside actresses Srinidhi Shetty and Raashi Khanna in director Neeraja Kona's highly anticipated upcoming Telugu romantic drama 'Telusu Kada', has recently emphasized to young men that self-respect is non-negotiable.

On Thursday, People Media Factory, the film's producers, shared a video clip of the actor's inspiring address at one of the film's pre-release events, where he spoke directly to boys and young men.

In his role, Siddhu portrays a character with a strong sense of self in the relationship drama 'Telusu Kada'. He stated, "Let's have a serious conversation, boys. If a woman breaks your heart and leaves, let her go. If you chase after her, you'll jeopardize your own self-respect."

He further asserted, "Self-respect is non-negotiable. It is essential. You may feel hurt and question your situation, but it's important to accept it. That is when your true self emerges. This is the moment you realize that your emotions must remain under your control. The power center should always be here (indicating his heart)."

The film has generated significant buzz following the release of a trailer that has captured attention.

People Media Factory promoted the teaser on social media, stating, "This Diwali, love will be UNAPOLOGETICALLY RADICAL. #TelusuKadaTrailer out now! #TelusuKada in cinemas October 17th. #LoveU2 #UnapologeticallyRadical"

The trailer opens with Siddhu sharing his insights on maintaining power within a relationship, saying, "The moment you reveal your pain and tears to a woman is when you surrender control. You should never allow that. The power center must always be here (pointing to his heart). How we love and express that love should remain in our control."

In one exchange, Srinidhi's character expresses fear, to which he responds, "Then, be scared." In another scene, Raashi's character questions, "Can you guarantee a good life if I marry you?" His reply is, "I'm not a salesman to provide guarantees or warranties."

The trailer features several confrontations between Siddhu and his friends, culminating in one friend saying, "If I give you a heads up before slapping you, will it hurt less?" Siddhu's response is a confident, "Let's see!"

Overall, the trailer suggests that 'Telusu Kada' will focus more on power dynamics in relationships rather than traditional romance.

It is noteworthy that Srinidhi Shetty portrays a character named Raaga, while Raashi Khanna plays Anjali. 'Telusu Kada' is set to premiere on October 17, coinciding with the festival of Deepavali this year.
