Brand recommendations and advertising are a huge source of income for movie stars. Whether Bollywood or Tollywood, many have supported it – from clothing brands to fairness creams.
As part of their marketing strategies, several major luxury brands are choosing paid celebrity advertising to attract customers. In fact, some Bollywood stars like Alia Bhatt, Kartik Aryan, Sonam K -oor made millions for a single social media post with a brand name.
But at a time when the advertising industry pays a movie star more than a filmmaker, there are still plenty of southern superstars who refused to endorse brands. Let’s take a look:
The popular veteran Telugu actor, Nandamuri Balakrishna, is one of the few Telugu actors who has never -peared in a TV or print commercial. Nandamuri has never endorsed a brand on social media either.
In an interview citing his father, Nandamuri Taraka Rama Rao, as a reason for not endorsing a brand, the Natasimham told the Tollywood industry that his father never -peared in a commercial during his entire journey in the film industry as an actor or supported a brand. Balakrishna said that his fans, family and friends always showed him love and admiration. And he is not part of using his fans and Telugu people for commercial purposes and making money with it.
He said, “As an actor, it is my duty to entertain people through my films, and I will do that for the rest of my life.”
Sai Palavi
Some time ago, Sai Pallavi turned down a Rs 2 crore advertising deal with the fairness cream brand Fair and Lovely. In one of her interviews in 2019, the actress explained her decision to reject the proposal: “This is an Indian color. Africans have their color too and are beautiful. “
Some other names in the Telugu and Tamil film industries include veteran actor Mohan Babu, Nandamuri Kalyan Ram, Anushka Shetty, Gautami, Snow Vishnu, Manchu Manoj Kumar, Allari Naresh, Sai Dharam Tej.
