While the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) document itself mentions different dialogues and cuts, the assertion that a particular line contains the word ‘Golty’ as a slur has turned into the main point of online argument, with many Telugu users considering it as an offensive allusion to their language and culture. The issue has opened up discussions on sensitivity, representation and the accountability of filmmakers in portraying inter regional dynamics. Users of social media in the Telugu language, as well as major accounts and influencers, heightened the matter by demanding a prohibition on the film or taking legal actions, while some of them were even asking the state authorities and cultural institutions to step in. The campaigns and posts that were rebuking the alleged use of the slur quickly went viral, indicating a wider dissatisfaction among some parts of the viewers. In contrast, the proponents of the movie’s creative choices are tom-tomming the liberty of art and the surrounding circumstances, stating the comprehension of the dialogue should be grounded in the dramatic action, the characters, and the intention of the narrative and not be arbitrarily judged.

The present situation on the net is a dialogue that comprised not only the representatives of the corresponding communities but also the industry people involved. The CBFC has not yet made its stand clear regarding the defamation allegation, and the producers have not come out with any official statement on the matter of a ban. The fracas has been pointed out by several observers as a case showing the ongoing problems of Indian cinema with cultural sensitivity and regional harmony, calling for concern as the social media platforms can very quickly turn local complaints into national discussions. The argumentation is still in process, and the eventual impact on the film’s release and public reception in the Telugu market is still unpredictable.
