Veteran Director K. Raghavendra Rao Urges To Andhra Pradesh CM To Reconsider Bill On Movie Ticket Prices

Hyderabad, December 2 - While the Telugu film industry is still recovering from the devastating effects of the covid-19 pandemic, the firm stand of the state government on the low ticket prices has further become a roadblock in the recovery. The Telugu film artists have been urging the Andhra Pradesh chief minister to allow the hike in the movie ticket prices so that they can generate some revenues. ## Powerstar Pawan Kalyan has continuously spoken against the government for neglecting the Telugu film industry. Natural star Nani too has expressed his opinion on this burning issue and now, veteran director K. Raghavendra Rao has opened up on the issue of ticket rates in Andhra Pradesh.## Expressing his displeasure regarding the Andhra Pradesh government's stand on the issue, the director appealed to the AP Chief Minister, Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy to reconsider the Bill passed on the reduction of movie ticket prices in cinema halls. ## "With the existing pandemic-related problems, the film industry sees only a 10-20 percent success ratio. Hundreds of families depend on that percentage of success. Distributors, traders, theatre owners, and many others survive on this little success", Rao said.## About online movie ticketing, Rao wrote, "What if influenced people freeze the online tickets and sell in the black market? There are possibilities, right? So, I'm requesting the government to reconsider the decisions taken about online booking system".## Director Rao further suggested that the government should officially increase ticket rates, at least for the first week of any movie release, which would only help them generate more revenue from the taxes. He urged the Andhra Pradesh government to do justice to the industry, which has been badly affected by the health crisis. ## Stay tuned...
