With KGF 2 a week away from its release, the makers are a bit concerned regarding the ticket prices in Telangana. KGF2 is a pan-India release and made on a massive budget. Looking at the massive buzz and craze for this Yash starrer, the distributors have bought the film for record amounts.
However, the AP ticket prices issue has come back to bite this Sandalwood pan India project as well. KGF 2 makers are requesting the AP government for ticket hikes and have quoted that their film justifies the government’s condition for hikes as it is a pan India film and higher than the Rs100Cr budget. However, it needs to be seen if this condition of the AP government applies to dubbing movies.
As per AP government orders, special prices will be allocated for films that have been shot on a budget greater than 100+ crores(excluding hero, heroine, and director remuneration). These films will be considered super high-budget films and will be granted special prices for the first 10 days of release. It is important to note that this applies only if 20% of the film is shot in Andhra Pradesh.
As per this G.O, RRR and Radhe Shyam were given a ticket hike in the state. However, the case of KGF 2 is still unconfirmed and makers are waiting anxiously for a response from the government. If KGF 2 gets the hike then all pan Indian big-budget movies from any industry will apply for the hike. The case has turned quite interesting and we need to wait and watch what resolution comes out of this.
