During the pre-release event of Akash Puri's 'Chor Bazaar', Bandla Ganesh made shocking comments on Puri Jagannadh's absence from the event Actor-turned-producer Bandla Ganesh was present as one of the guests at the pre-release event of Chor Bazaar which is releasing on June 24. The movie stars Akash Puri, son of Puri Jagannadh, and Gehna Sippy in the lead roles and is directed by Jeevan Reddy (of ‘Dalam’ and ‘George Reddy’ fame). Speaking on the occasion, Bandla Ganesh stunned one and all with his frank and unabashed comments on Puri Jagannadh. “Puri Jagannath has created many superstars. But I don’t approve of his staying in Mumbai and skipping the pre-release event function of his own son’s film whatever may be the reason. Puri had expressed his desire many times to me about making his son a star. But he should take responsibility for his family as well, as nothing is bigger or more important than it, whether he likes it or not. Having created so many stars, how can he abstain from his own son’s life event,” said the producer. He further added, “Akash has done an excellent job and will definitely become a huge star. The day is not far off when Puri Jagannadh himself would have to stand in line for the dates of his son. I want this film to do well for the sake of my ‘Vadina’ (Lavanya, Puri Jagannadh’s wife). She has sacrificed everything for her family and children. There are many heroes who are charging crores of rupees today and they all owe it to Puri Jagannadh but not one of them has found the time today to turn up for this event and bless Akash. They are scared that Akash will become a star and a threat to them. Nevertheless, none can stop Akash from reaching his potential. ‘Chor Bazaar’ is guaranteed to become a blockbuster”.
