Vishwak Sen made headlines at the CULT teaser launch event when he responded strongly to a female journalist’s critical questions about his film choices.
During the press interaction, the journalist questioned the actor about the kind of films he is choosing and asked why he is making such movies. The critical tone of the question did not sit well with Vishwak Sen, leading to a heated exchange.
‘Give Respect If You Expect Respect’
Responding to the journalist, Vishwak Sen said:
“Earlier you spoke about Nani like that… Now you are speaking about me? If you point fingers at us, it’s okay… But if we respond the same way, you can’t take it?”
The actor made it clear that mutual respect is important and emphasized that if someone expects respect from celebrities, they should also address them respectfully.
‘Did You See Only Drugs in the Teaser?’
The situation escalated further when the journalist asked whether it was necessary to make a drugs-based film like CULT.
Vishwak Sen replied sharply:
“Did you see only drugs in the teaser? You tend to notice more of what you personally focus on.”
His response immediately grabbed attention at the venue and sparked discussions about press freedom versus respectful journalism.
Heated Exchange Goes Viral on Social Media
The confrontation quickly became the highlight of the CULT teaser launch event, with videos circulating widely across social media platforms. Fans and netizens were divided in their reactions, with some supporting the actor’s stance on mutual respect while others debated the journalist’s right to ask tough questions.
Vishwak Sen also pointed out that in the past, the same journalist had mentioned other actors, including Nani, in a similar tone without proper respect. The actor’s bold response has reignited conversations about the relationship between celebrities and media in the Telugu film industry.
