True to their nature, Sagar Pictures have distorted the character of Uddhava also.
Let us see what Srimad Bhagavatham has to say about Uddhava...
We first encounter Uddhava in the 3rd Skanda, when Vidura meets Uddhava, on the banks of Yamuna. This is after the Yadava annihilation, of which Vidura is not aware. Vidura courteously inquires about all the prinicpal Yadavas.
At first, Uddhava is unable to speak, because the very thought of Krishna has transported him to a devotional trance. While informing Vidura about the Yadava fratricide, Uddhava recounts the exploits of the Lord which forms the basis of the next two chapters.
In the next few of slokas we come to know that1)Uddhava was Krishna's companion even at the age of five and2) his devotion to Krishna only increased with age.
In the course of their dialogue, Vidura observes that Uddhava had reached the pinnacle of devotion.
Uddhava's nature comes out even better in the 4th Chapter of the 3rd Skanda where the Lord Himself certifies his character
Uddhava was one of the few to witness Krishna during his last few moments on Earth and he describes the scene (to Vidura) in a choking voice. Krishna had already warned Uddhava about the impending disaster and advised him to go to Badarikarshram, but Uddhava could not even think of leaving Lord's presence. As the Lord took his final abode under a tree, He observed Uddhava standing nearby and asked him to sit near Him. (See, this was Uddhava... he won't even sit in front of Krishna unless specifically asked to do so...Such was his reverence)
The Lord reveals that Uddhava had attained the present birth after a lot of tapas and this would be his last birth. The very fact that Uddhava alone ventured to visit Krishna in His final moments on Earth, spoke volumes of his devotion and was enough to assure him of a place in Vaikunth.
Uddhava, knowing that separation from his beloved Lord was inevitable (albeit temporarily) requests him to impart the Supreme knowledge which the Lord Himself had narrated to Brahma. (This discussion is narrated in greater detail in the 11th Skanda.)
Parikshit then questions Sage Sukhdev, when all the Yadavas disappeared, why did uddhava alone remain behind?
Sukhdev then answers, that in His final moments, The Lord deemed only Uddhava fit to propagate the divine knowledge which He had imparted to Uddhava. Sukhdeva says that "the Lord did not consider Uddhava any different from Himself, since Uddhava is also above the three gunas i.e Saatva, rajas and tamas"
