Meme creators recall social media sensation kid Gadwal Bidda post his demise

A social media sensation kid S Mallikarjun Reddy popularly known as 'Gadwal Bidda' passed away on Sunday due to an asthma attack. The boy had been reportedly suffering from Bronchial Asthma since his childhood.

Mallikarjun is from the Gadwal district in Telangana. He first went viral after releasing a video criticizing Ram Gopal Varma, a film director, for the movie- 'Amma Rajyam lo Kadapa Biddalu' which was released in 2019. The video Gadwal Bidda released was controversial due to his comments on caste and more.

Since 2019, his dialogues, short video clippings, and pictures have made him one of the most sought-after 'material for memes.' He went on to be deemed as the 'most loved meme kid' in the Telugu states on social media by various meme creators and his followers.

Meme creator Ajay was saddened by the grim news of Gadwal Bidda. He recalled sharing and using Gadwal Bidda's content in his memes several times. "Approximately a year ago, all Telugu memes had Gadwal Bidda's pics and dialogues," he said. Ajay added that some of his most famous dialogues were 'Nuv evanivo nak Telidu, Suudandi Adi kuda correct eh kadha sir,' amongst others.

Popular Instagram meme page 'Single Sinthakayi' was baffled by the news and found it hard to believe that Gadwal Bidda had passed away at such a young age. The admin of the page, Rajesh, spoke about his two viral videos- one of Ram Gopal Varma and another video where Gadwal Bidda wished people a Happy Dussehra. "His unique, mixed Rayalaseema accent in the two videos is what made him so famous," said Rajesh.
