“Chiranjeevi’s daughter, Sushmita Konidela, has teamed up with Zee 5 to produce the web series ‘Paruvu.’ Featuring Nivetha Pethuraj, Naresh Agasthya, and Naga Babu in pivotal roles, the series is now available for streaming on Zee 5. ‘Paruvu’ spans 8 episodes, each lasting between 40 to 50 minutes.
This thriller delves into an inter-caste love story and marriage set against the backdrop of Guntur – Vijayawada. It explores the impact of caste on politics and individual actions, highlighting how caste fanaticism can drive people to extreme measures. Despite its strong conceptual foundation, certain aspects of the series have sparked controversy.
Though the series avoids direct mentions of specific castes, it includes references such as a hardcore NTR fan portrayed as a caste fanatic, which many viewers interpret as alluding to the Chowdary caste. This has led to backlash against Sushmita Konidela, with some netizens accusing the series of targeting a particular community.”
