‘Are you even hero material?' Anil Geela responds to trolls after Mothevari Love Story becomes an OTT hit
Anil Geela: From trolls to triumph
Mothevari Love Story is set in the heartland of Telangana and has all local actors in lead roles. Anil revealed that when the first-look teaser was launched, he read a comment trolling him, 'Are you even hero material?' which really hurt him. Now that the series has become a smash hit, Anil says he doesn't have to reply to anyone as his work speaks for itself.
'I clearly remember all the trolls, but I did not get bogged down as I knew we had a great series in our hands. We started our careers by doing content on YouTube, and not many took us seriously. But Zee5 showed confidence in us and allowed us to make Mothevari Love Story, which is now clocking good numbers. We as a team are growing slowly, and I want everyone to promote the series as much as they can,' said Anil.
The series is about a young couple who decide to elope, but a land deal changes the course of their love story. Charan Arjun composed the music for this series, which was produced by Madhura Sreedhar.
Anil also adds that his team from his YouTube days made this series, and everyone is loving the situational comedy, which has been made on a low budget, but they never compromised on the visuals. Noted actor Muralidhar Goud also plays a key role in this series, which has Varshini Reddy as the female lead. An emotional Anil also requested everyone to support the series so that he and his team can come up with something big next time.

‘Never going back': Indian woman calls Eiffel Tower lunch her most ‘expensive' and ‘worst' meal
A dream lunch at the Eiffel Tower turned into a nightmare for one Indian woman, and her brutally honest review has sparked a debate online. Ishwarya, who runs the YouTube travel page Make Travel Easy with her UK-based Tamil husband, Sakthivel, recently shared a video about her expensive yet underwhelming meal at Le Jules Verne, the two-Michelin-star restaurant perched on the second floor of the iconic Paris monument. What was meant to be a luxurious foodie experience instead left her saying: 'The most expensive lunch of my life… and the worst. I'm never coming here again.' In her video, Ishwarya didn't hold back. She described the bread served as so hard it was 'impossible to chew.' The cold starter earned just 2/10, the main dish scraped a 7/10, and the dessert, 'overloaded with cream', got a dismal 1/10. Interestingly, she wasn't the only one disappointed. A senior tourist from New Zealand at the next table also struggled with the bread. When Ishwarya requested an alternative, the waiter simply shrugged. This was the only bread available. In a rather amusing twist, Ishwarya later accompanied the lady to a supermarket to buy biscuits! The review sparked a heated debate online. While many Indians sided with Ishwarya, calling it an 'overpriced tourist trap,' others defended the restaurant, pointing out that French bread is traditionally crusty and meant to be eaten with soup or dips. They suggested this might have been a cultural and culinary mismatch. A user wrote, 'European breads are supposed to be all breads are are so many different types of breads.' Another user wrote, 'You don't go to such a fine restaurant if you're not used to the French cuisine.' 'It's supposed to dip and eat in soup so it's usually hard,' the third user shared. The fourth user commented, 'It is tourist trap do you think locals will go to have lunch at eifel tower?' 'Paris is simply overrated,' the fifth wrote. Le Jules Verne isn't just about the food; it's about the experience. Sitting 125 metres above Paris, it boasts sweeping views of the city, a menu of modern French delicacies, and a wine list featuring over 430 French vintages. Signature dishes include langoustine ravioli, roasted pigeon, and intricately plated desserts. But luxury comes at a price; lunch tasting menus start at about €190 (around ₹ 17,000) per person, while dinner can set you back €255 or more, wine excluded.
