One of the most loved Telugu films of late has been Jathi Ratnalu. Naveen Polishetty whom the Hindi-speaking audience would know as Acid from Chhichhore did a fab job in the film, which left even the top Tollywood stars super impressed. Recently, a fan of his named Sai wrote to him appreciating his work in the film. He told Naveen Polishetty that the comedy movie brought some cheer to his grieving mom was watching Jathi Ratnalu. It seems his dad died due to COVID-19 and the lady was in depression since then.

The pandemic has been very harsh on families. Friends, colleagues, relatives, immediate family members have lost in the fight with COVID-19. This gesture from Naveen Polishetty is indeed heart-warming.
