Will Tollywood fight the intolerant regime?

The shocking manner in which the AP government headed by CM Jagan Mohan Reddy is targeting Pawan Kalyan's Bheemla Nayak in the state of Andhra Pradesh is becoming the point of discussion. Despite singling out Pawan Kalyan's Bheemla Nayak and mentioning the name specified in its orders to the revenue officials and others, the deafening silence of Tollywood is surprising everyone.

Entire Tollywood is scared of AP CM Jagan as to what would happen to their film releases if they talk about the injustice meted out to Pawan Kalyan's Bheemla Nayak. They are hoping against hope that after the Bheemla Nayak's releases, AP government will revise the ticket rates passing a new GO which will benefit their films. They feel, if they talk about Bheemla Nayak and government atrocities, the GO may not come.

It is known that the new GO if it comes to force, will bring back the old ticket rates, and its like status quo and no loss no gain unlike in Telangana which facilitated the increase of ticket rates for two weeks for the biggies. Mega Brother Naga Babu questioned the silence of Tollywood and also AP government headed by Jagan Mohan Reddy a couple of days back. He said despite all this, even if Tollywood doesn't support Pawan Kalyan, Pawan Kalyan and the mega family will come in support of the other makers if they are in the same situation. He felt Tollywood is gripped with fear and added that the mega family is not scared of anyone.

Now Naga Babu once again fired on all cylinders. He released two videos and accused YSRCP leaders and the government of being unaware of the filmmaking and also pointed out how many top stars reduced their remuneration and returned back to the producers when the film faced losses and also during the covid times. He blasted YSRCP and dared them to come with films casting Kodali Nani and others as the heroes. Earlier Ram Gopal Varma came with a similar opinion. He said if YSRCP tries to crush Tollywood or take over it, the makers have other sources like digital media platforms, OTTs, and Youtube channels to release their content.
