Andhra Pradesh Cinematography and I & PR minister Perni Nani will hold a press meet shortly. The minister is likely to address the ongoing ticket pricing issue and theatre closures that are going on in the state presently.
Perni Nani will also be addressing the government’s plan for an online ticketing platform as well. He had earlier stated that the portal will be managed through AP State Film, Television and Theatre Development Corporation (APSFTTDC). It is being done to ensure maximum transparency.
Adding to this, Nani said that this would lead to a reduction of the service charge that the audience will have to pay over per booking.
The tickets pricing issue has become a serious battle between Tollywood and Government. The government one hand is passing G.Os and using its machinery to target the theatres and the industry as a whole. Retaliating o this, Tollywood is approaching courts and even shutting down its theatres voluntarily in protest.
The minister is likely to face questions on all these issues and address them.
