Appreciating the Tamil actor for his \u201ckind gesture and swift response, as well as the respect you\u2019ve shown towards our shared traditions\u201d, Pawan Kalyan took to X to share that \u201cTirupati and its revered laddus, carry deep emotional weight for millions of devotees, and it\u2019s essential for all of us to handle such topics with care.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dear @Karthi_Offl<\/a> garu,<\/p>\n

I sincerely appreciate your kind gesture and swift response, as well as the respect you’ve shown towards our shared traditions. Matters concerning our sacred institutions, like Tirupati and its revered laddus, carry deep emotional weight for millions of\u2026<\/p>\n

The actor said, \u201cI wanted to bring this to your notice with no intentions behind it, and I understand the situation was unintentional. Our responsibility as public figures is to foster unity and respect, especially regarding what we cherish most\u2014our culture and spiritual values. Let\u2019s always strive to uplift these values while continuing to inspire through cinema.\u201d <\/p>\n

In the long tweet, the actor also added, \u201c\u00a0I would also like to express my admiration for you as a remarkable actor whose dedication and talent have consistently enriched our cinema.\u201d Karthi and his elder brother and actor Suriya, thanked Pawan Kalyan for his wishes. <\/p>\n

The issue began at a pre-release event of\u00a0Karthi\u2019s upcoming film\u00a0Meiyazhagan,\u00a0<\/i>where the actor was asked to comment on a meme from his film\u00a0Siruthai.\u00a0<\/i>The meme, aimed at the Tirupati laddu row, used the film\u2019s dialogue, \u2018Kanna laddu thinna aasaiya\u2019. Responding to the host, Karthi said he didn\u2019t wish to comment on the meme.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe shouldn\u2019t talk about laddu in the current scenario. It is a sensitive topic,\u201d Karthi said in jest. Reacting to the incident, Pawan Kalyan told reporters that people will not forgive those who make \u201cfun of the issue.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cMembers of the film industry are making jokes on laddu. When it comes to Sanathana Dharma, please think 100 times before you say a word. In some movie event, one actor called it a \u201csensitive issue.\u201d Don\u2019t you ever say that. I respect you all as actors but please refrain from commenting on this issue,\u201d said Pawan Kalyan.<\/p>\n
