Atharvaa: That's Why I Stayed Away from Tollywood

Tamil actor Atharvaa, who gained recognition among Telugu audiences with his performance in Gaddalakonda Ganesh, has finally addressed why he did not sign another Telugu film after that success. Speaking at the trailer launch event of his upcoming film Hridayam Murali, Atharvaa said he was eager to continue working in Telugu cinema and had received several promising offers.

However, he explained that the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic disrupted his schedule completely. Since he had already committed to multiple Tamil films, he had to honour those projects first. As a result, his plans to act in more Telugu films were delayed, despite his interest in returning to Tollywood.
