Troubles for NTR, Arjun, Charan and Manchu brothers
IndiaGlitz, [Thursday,December 17 2009]
Least did anyone predict that the ongoing Telangna agitation would become a headache for some of the top ranking actors of Tollywood. Though they have nothing to do with Telangana and Samaikhya Andhra, they are paying the price.
After the official stand taken by Hari Krishna (Late NTR's son and TDP supporter), Chiranjeevi and Mohan Babu, their kin, whose films have crores of rupees worth of stakes on them, are running into unwarranted troubles. If NTR's Adhurs, slated for a December 25 release, is likely to face challenges in Telangana, following his father Hari Krishna's anti-Telangana stand, Allu Arjun's Arya2 has already been boycotted in the region, following a call given by the Joint Action Committee (a body fighting for the cause of Statehood to Telangana).
The films of Manchu brothers have new troubles for them. If Saleem has already been blitzed by film critics, it is now the target of Telangana patriots. The film has been boycotted voluntarily in the region. There is no one who is talking about Bindaas, because it's known what it's fate is going to be if it releases anytime soon.
Loss in crores is guaranteed to other films too, with people liking the Samaikhya Andhra-Telangana drama better (it's telecast 24/7 on all news channels).
