Nidhhi Agerwal Denies Asking For Andhra Pradesh Government Vehicle After Viral Video
Actress Nidhhi Agerwal faced backlash for using an Andhra Pradesh government car during a Bhimavaram visit. She clarified no officials were involved in providing the vehicle.
Actress Nidhhi Agerwal recently found herself at the center of an unexpected controversy after a video showing her travelling in an Andhra Pradesh government car went viral. Visiting Bhimavaram for a store launch, she faced criticism and speculation about how the government vehicle came to be used during her trip. Nidhhi has now personally addressed the situation, explaining that she had no role in arranging the car and that the decision was entirely handled by the event organisers.
The actress explained that the local event organisers arranged transportation for her during the store launch event in Bhimavaram. 'I would like to address and clarify certain speculations circulating on social media regarding my recent visit to Bhimavaram for a store launch event," she said. 'During the event, the local organisers arranged transportation for me, which happened to be a vehicle belonging to the Andhra Pradesh government. I wish to clearly state that I had no role in requesting this vehicle, it was provided solely by the event organisers for logistical purposes."
Responding to online reports suggesting that government officials had directly provided the car, Agerwal firmly rejected such claims. She described these as 'completely baseless" and reiterated that she had no connection with government authorities in this matter.
'I deeply value my audience, and it is important to clarify my truth so that no misinformation is carried forward. I am grateful to my fans and well-wishers for their constant love and support," her statement added.

Nidhhi Agerwal's career
Nidhhi Agerwal is an actress primarily working across Telugu, Tamil, and Hindi cinema. Her journey began after participating in Miss Diva Universe 2014. She made her acting debut with the Hindi film Munna Michael (2017). Director Sabbir Khan selected Agerwal from over 300 candidates for the film, alongside Tiger Shroff. During the film's production, she adhered to a no-dating clause until completion. Although Munna Michael received mixed to negative reviews, it marked a significant start to her film career.
She ventured into Telugu cinema with Savyasachi (2018) and Tamil cinema with Eeswaran (2021). Her performance in Savyasachi brought her a nomination for the SIIMA Award for Best Female Debut – Telugu. Some of her notable projects include iSmart Shankar (2019), which enjoyed commercial success, and Kalaga Thalaivan (2022), praised by critics.
Her Telugu debut, Savyasachi, starred opposite Naga Chaitanya, but the film underperformed at the box office. In 2019, she appeared in Mr. Majnu with Akhil Akkineni, which was not commercially successful, whereas iSmart Shankar became a hit, running for more than 100 days in theatres. That year, she also featured in music videos like 'Unglich Ring Daal De" by Jyotica Tangri and 'AAHO! Mittran Di Yes Hai" with Badshah.
In 2021, Agerwal's Tamil debut Eeswaran, opposite Silambarasan, met with average reviews. Later that year, she appeared in Bhoomi alongside Jayam Ravi, which was poorly received. She also featured in a recreation of Altaf Raja's 'Saath Kya Nibhaoge" song with Sonu Sood.
Her 2022 film Hero, with debutant Ashok Galla, garnered mixed reactions. Conversely, Kalaga Thalaivan, an action thriller directed by Magizh Thirumeni and starring Udhayanidhi Stalin and Agerwal, received positive critical acclaim.
Nidhhi Agerwal is slated to appear as Panchami in Krish Jagarlamudi's Hari Hara Veera Mallu, expected to release in December 2024.
