Sai Pallavi Faces Social Media Heat
Actress Sai Pallavi is once again facing criticism online due to an old interview clip from 2022. During that time, she was promoting a Telugu movie where she played a Naxalite. In the interview, she talked about how different people view violence and conflicts. She said, “People in Pakistan see our army as terrorists, and we see them the same way. So, it depends on one’s point of view. I don’t support violence.”
Her main point was to reject violence in any form. She was not comparing the Indian Army with terrorists, but rather showing how perspectives can change based on which side you are on.

However, a short version of this interview resurfaced in October 2024, without the full context. After the recent Pahalgam terror attack, where 27 civilians lost their lives, the clip went viral again. Many people started blaming her and accused her of being anti-national. Social media trends like #BoycottSaiPallavi started to spread.
This renewed backlash came just as Sai Pallavi is set to play Sita in an upcoming Ramayana film, adding more heat to the controversy. Some people believe this is a planned campaign to damage her rising career in Bollywood.
Her fans are supporting her by sharing the complete interview video, showing that her words were taken out of context. They also point out that her latest film, Amaran, is based on the life of a real Indian Army hero.
In the end, the question remains: Is this fair treatment, or is she being targeted unnecessarily? Expressing a view against violence should not lead to hate, especially when her intentions were clearly misunderstood.
