At the success meet of Itllu Arjuna, Nagarjuna made some interesting comments. When asked if he presented the film because Aniesh is his friend’s son, Nagarjuna said that he had watched the film earlier and decided to present it because he liked the content.
Nagarjuna said, “A movie won’t perform just because I presented it. A film’s run is totally dependent on its content. Many stars are presenting and promoting movies, but they aren’t doing well. They won’t. If the content is good, the talk will spread after the morning show. Star promotions alone cannot make films successful.”
He added, “Maybe all this is to create a little bit of interest. There isn’t much that we can do. It doesn’t matter who presents or who doesn’t present. A movie performs solely on its merits.”
