Tollywood To Miss 2 Seasons, Not To Revive Till Then

Sai Dharam Tej’s Solo Brathuke So Better is planned for Christmas release. But, it seems, the film may skip theatrical release, as things doesn’t look favorable. Even if theatres will reopen in next month, not many filmmakers are keen to release their films with 50 percent seating capacity.

Zee that acquired all the rights including theatrical and OTT of Solo Brathuke So Better is mulling over simultaneous release. But, they are not sure whether audience will come to theatres. So, they will decide on film’s release in a couple of weeks. The film directed by Subbu had completed all the formalities long ago.

Then, there is good number of films scheduled for sankranthi release. Apparently, Tollywood will miss this season as well, as producers of these films not willing to release until things will return to normalcy and the theatres will be completely functional like before.

Already Pawan Kalyan’s Vakeel Saab, Chiranjeevi’s Acharya got postponed to summer. Akhil’s Most Eligible Bachelor, Nithiin’s Rang De, Ravi Teja’s Krack and Ram’s Red are likely to be pushed to summer.

Meanwhile, today Tollywood bigwigs Chiranjeevi, Nagarjuna, KL Damodara Prasad, C Kalyan, Sudhkar Reddy, Narayandas Narang and Niranjan Reddy met Telangana CM KCR in Pragathi Bhavan. KCR assured that the Telangana government would offer special concessions and exceptions for Tollywood.

Though KCR promised to take all necessary actions for the wellbeing of Tollywood, the industry may not revive completely till summer.
