The Gemini Film Circuit management expressed their happiness that their film 'Shankar Dada Zindabad' directed by Prabhudeva had not proved that it was a commercial success, but also inspiring the people in the society.

The present day youth learnt as to how to solve their problems by using Gandhism through their film. The Gandhigiri which was used by their hero Chiranjeevi in the film was emulated by the students of a college in Kancharapalem of Visakhapatnam and got their problem solved.

The press note released by the Gemini Film Circuit says, 'There is an vocational college and its students used to get bus passes every year from the RTC. However, the RTC management refused to issue bus passes to the students, even after the college was reopened two months ago. They stopped issuing the bus passes claiming that the college was listed in Para Medical list. Instead of resorting to strike, the students decided to use 'Gandhigiri' to get their problem resolved. So they had sent bouquets to the RTC management as a mark of protest. Realising their variety protest, the RTC management reacted positively and solved the problem. The college principal Srinivas sent a message to Chiranjeevi for showing a novel way to resolve the problems through his film and making the students shed the violent path.'

The Gemini Film Circuit management says that it was feeling proud for producing one such film.
