Sai Pallavi and Nani in Shyam Singa Roy film

During the promotions of Shyam Singa Roy, Sai gave a hard hit to a journalist who asked Nani and Krithi Shetty about the kissing scene in front of her. She said I find this question very uncomfortable as it is not a place to ask. They both did it for the sake of the storyline, what is asked of them by the director. But when you put this question like this, it became uncomfortable.

However, getting called out by Sai, the journalist didn’t seem to care and continued to ask intimate kissing scene-related questions and Sai replied it is unfair to continue with such questions.
