[@premathejournalist]

All my interviews have a mix of English and Telugu, sometimes more in English so as to reach larger audiences. Even thumbnails are in English. I respect your feedback and appreciate if you understand my point and watch my interviews. Thankyou.

[@priyanarayan9426]

Appreciate your prompt response mam. The feedback was more with respect to less interruption, letting the guest speak more and mostly for us to understand their perspective and not the host's. I'm comfortable with dual language interviews ☺️ Wishing you the best

[@dommarajurakesh949]

Not a mix of English and Telugu it's more than 95% English in your interview

[@grinhilarious4222]

Language should not be a barrier. Your interviews are good if that interruptions are avoided it breaks the connectivity and makes it less engaging.

[@Umakanthonline]

This interview is just wow! Swapna, you are something special for TFI. (I saw the last Prema interview with Swapna) just awesome.... I saw you had potential for success when I watched her first interview...long way to go SWAPNA

[@ICantHearYou777]

Prema garu, if you genuinely want to see growth in film opportunities for women, instead of asking the same question to every director why don’t you start doing it by taking your cameraman, video editor as women?

[@dindiramamohanarao7344]

I think project K is a testing time for them, I hope it will be a blockbuster 💐💐💐💐. All the best. Very genuine interview and loved to see 🎉🎉🎉. Thank you Prema garu for interviewing such a good people.

[@nandanksnandanks4185]

[@sindhuarvapalli]

when the guest is talking, it’s good to listen than interrupt and give opinion in the middle stopping what other person is talking.

[@uppubhaskar]

The interviewer is not letting her to answer

[@harshkumarshambu4804]

[@balukasula4376]

Prema I observed many times u r interrupting Swapna

[@aaAaa-rq2cj]

Swapna is very smart. Kaburlu cheptundi

[@himanaidu]

Prema garu your interviews are amazing but you need to let them talk more . It is very noisy when you are shouting over them.

[@sowndarya7284]

Can anybody here tell me the difference between feminism and equal rights? Both are not same? Why here Prema garu frequently saying branding as feminists.? We are not feminists but we are hoping for equal rights 🙄.. 🙄.. what's the difference actually??🤷 What's wrong with calling ourselves as feminists when we are hoping equal rights and opportunities?

[@varnikam3600]

100% agree

[@jeevik6799]

Very well said ... u r right what's wrong with that term. Is that equal term to terrorist or wht ... ee boomer aunty ki artham avaledha leka pothe open ga feminist ani cheppukunte male dominated ga unna industry vaaladhi so thokki padestharu emo ani okka bayam

[@VinnuKanna007]

Ma'am jathi ratnalu also good hit from yours production. you missed in mentioning

[@ramanareddy88]

Length of the questions is greater than lenght of the answers. Do editing. We are watching the interview for the views of the interviewee. Too much lags in questions.

Does she even watches her own interviews, before asking questions to any interviewer .

[@chandrarupdaka4510]

discussing women equity in entire conversation,its cleashe that she is asking for telugu heroines.if there is talent everyone will find a spot ,don't differentiate!!(first between men & women , then among women themselves..

[@jeevik6799]

There is lot of talent in americans pakisthanis and italians do u give space equally in indian films ??? Don't u have preference over indians first as u make movies here in india and earn money from indians ??? Anywhere same there are lot of talents in china so can u give govt jobs and militant posting to them dont u first prefer our own indians?? in telangana and andhra the jobs are first telugu ppl only right then only u ppl will prefer other state guys.. same way this is not inequality its just giving preference to our girls first not to fair skin bombay shits ..

[@krishnadkc]

Yenti bondulo fighter.. they crores of property and money..

[@VinayKumar-gj3fs]

These news reporter anchors always try to bring some controversy statements in middle of the interview, and she always bring, that constant questions how hard for you to prove to sucessful being women, and why don't male directors do women oriented films , why women don't have meaty roles. This is repetitive questions in every interview, she doesn't do interview like a film journalist, she always does like a real social journalist.why??

Out of 90 minutes in an interview of “A PRODUCER” ,why is more than 60minutes of it is ONLY ABOUT WOMEN and THEIR PERSPECTIVE OR INDIRECT APPRECIATION for a regular success !? Why isn’t it more about things like STORYTELLING, FILM MAKING, Characters or Being Accepted as a producer in the industry or knowing more about thought process while listening the stories !???!! You yourself making this as such a debatable about the success of A PRODUCER ! Public see her as a producer who got successful with her hard work, but it’s probably YOU WHO’s portraying this as an injustice which PUBLIC needs to be constantly addressed or reminded ! We do understand your contribution but sometimes it’s better to stick to our job when the opportunity is been viewed by millions of people and is also, limited by time !!!!
