Through Jayendra's 'Nootrenbadu' Siddharth has made a comeback into the Tamil film industry after seven long years, the movie simultaneously released in Telugu bearing the title '180' and in the movie's press conference held in Andhra Pradesh, Siddharth was in for a major surprise.

The press conference for '180' was held in Hyderabad on Tuesday. After his co-star Priya Anand spoke to the media about the film, Siddharth got ready to address the press. TV channels switched off the lights and pulled the microphones off Siddharth's table!

Film Journalists in Andhra Pradesh are up in arms against Siddharth for making derogatory remarks against their 'families'. Before the release of '180', local news channels N TV and ABN Andhra Jyothy telecasted programs on how there is poor buzz about '180' and almost declared that the movie would be a flop.

Angry with the news channels, Siddharth tweeted that "these journalists will even sell off their families for such reports."

This tweet of Siddharth triggered off a controversy and AP Film Journalists' Association has demanded an unconditional apology from the actor. Film Journalists association has dashed off a letter to Movie Artistes' Association, AP Film Chamber of Commerce and even South Indian Film Chamber of commerce demanding action against Siddharth.

Even earlier, there have been negative comments against Siddharth for he has reportedly remarked, Telugu film media as those journalists who live on stars and their tweets.

Our source from Telugu film Journalists' association claims that until Siddharth tenders an apology, media will continue to boycott all his films and won't carry news related to his movies anymore.
