While the theatres are opening up after the pandemic, the producers and exhibitors still have another challenge- the ticket prices. In the month of April, the Andhra Pradesh government issued orders which put a slab on the ticket rates as per the theatre’s locations. Tollywood producers have expressed serious concerns over this G.O. Now, as per reports Megastar Chiranjeevi is planning to take up the matter directly with AP CM Jaganmohan Reddy.
This year, Tollywood is going to witness a number of big-ticket films, and producers and distributors are really counting on them to pull them out of the lean patch brought in by lockdown. However, If this situation continues to prevail, a number of Tollywood biggies will have to struggle really hard to recover their investment with the government-established ticket prices.
The recent positive Twitter interaction between Chiranjeevi and Jaganmohan Reddy over vaccination drive in the state has led to strong buzz over the two meeting. According to the reports, Chiranjeevi will meet the AP CM in July 1st week or the second week over the ticket prices.
It will be interesting to see how the Chief Minister reacts considering he recently asked his ministers and aides that no discussion on this issue will be entertained.
