Theatre controversy in Andhra Pradesh, movie ticketing affair continues.However, industry leaders met CM Jagan yesterday to clarify the issue and end the controversy.
He said he had seen the newly designed ticketing system and thanked Jagan for pointing out that the revised prices were very good and that the problem had been solved.Similarly, another thank you was paid to the Chief Minister for allowing the fifth show to be screened in connection with the short film.
All in all, after the meeting with Jagan, there was a positive response.Chiranjeevi was able to get a solution to the dispute.
Biggies like Rajamouli spoke to the CM in English they knew and said that so far there have been no instances of Tollywood elders and Chief Minister Jaganmohan Reddy speaking face to face and that the efforts made to bridge that gap were good.Thanks, on this occasion.
All of these are fine but the argument that it would be better to ask for subsidies on behalf of the government to keep the short film alive sounds strong.
Giving permission to put on a fifth show is nice but there is also the argument that this alone is not the solution to the problem.
However, not only in Telangana but also in Andhra Pradesh, the filmmakers have achieved what they set out to do.
There was no news that anyone was committed to the word that they would try to set up an industry in Visakhapatnam.Surprisingly, despite the proposals made on behalf of the Chief Minister, neither Chiru nor Rajamouli asked anything about land or other concessions for setting up studios with world-class technical value.
