Suresh Babu in an interview with popular media house said that he fears Covid-19 and lockdown side effects will be felt for long in all Industries and financial activites around the world.

Later, he said that opening theatres in July or August will be suicidal and that won't happen too. He informed that in China and UAE, only 2% occupancies were registered in theatres. He also said that in Telugu states, theatres are facing huge problems already due to many issues and trying to act fast can further push us into bigger problems that no one can predict in future.

He said that he wants to play a game that is helpful for them in future and for longer period than that of smaller and immediate gains. So, according to him, the theatres can open after regular shootings start and they won't start till July.

He remarked that theatres will open three months after regular shoots start and hence, till October, there is no chance for opening theatres. He announced that Naarappa shoot won't start until government accepts to start shooting with 100 or more members at sets.
