In Rajanna, Akkineni Nagarjuna is playing a Telangana hero who rebels against the cruel Razakars. R Narayana Murthy is all set to hit the marquee with his Poru Telangana. Recently, it was Jagapathi Babu who entertained us with his much popular Jai Telangana. All this point to the fact that Tollywood stars, actors and artistes are ever-ready to do any film that offers them a good script and opportunity.

It is clear that they do not have any sub-regional feelings, much less a political agenda. It is pertinent to remember what Jagapathi had said at a pre-release function of Jai Telangana. He indicated that artistes are only interested in art and that art and politics must be kept separate.

Against this background, it is essential that the film industry is not touched and film personalities are not unnecessarily targeted.
