Producer SKN, known for his successful movie Baby, often makes attention-grabbing speeches at events. He jokes with odd statements that some find funny, but others find troublesome due to their double meanings. This continued at the trailer launch of Boys Hostel, where he shared stories involving Rashmi, an anchor and actress.
Boys Hostel, directed by Nithin Krishnamurthy, is a lively comedy. It’s the Telugu version of Hostel Hudugare Bekagiddare, a recent hit in Kannada in 2023. It’s releasing in Telugu on August 26th, and the just-released trailer has created a buzz.
During the Boys Hostel trailer launch, SKN, the Baby producer, made playful comments about Rashmi Gautam, who plays a key role. He said Rashmi’s pictures are put up in college hostel rooms, surprising Rashmi. SKN then tried to change the topic, suggesting this happens in many boys’ hostels. He jokingly added that they should also put up pictures of the Baby star, Baby Vaishnavi.
Rashmi promptly responded by asking whose picture SKN had in his own house. He humorously replied that hostels change the posters on different days. The video of this interaction went viral. Lately, the film industry has seen a trend of using controversial or provocative statements on stage for unique promotions.
