When the team headed back to Hyderabad, Shobu alleged that his team faced unfair treatment by one of the Emirates staff. The producer of the film, Shobu Yarlagadda tweeted about the incident from the airport saying that one of the Emirates staff was being racist. He was surprised since he flew Emirates regularly came across this kind of attitude for the first time.
