The Pawan Kalyan starrer Bro not only created a political row but also increased the political heat in Andhra Pradesh. Post the film’s release’ the debate on the remunerations taken by the big stars in showbiz had started. When the controversy is going on another row came into place raising many eyeballs.
Megastar Chiranjeevi’s comments at a film event gave birth to another controversy and people are talking about the remunerations. A few ruling party leaders asked questions about the pay cheques they take and the taxes they pay. AP Government advisor Sajjala Ramakrishna Reddy also asked the makers to show the required documents to get a price hike for the Bholaa Shankar movie.
The issue took a big turn with the entry of Maverick director Ram Gopal Varma. Reacting to the ongoing row’ the director came up with his analysis of the issue and made some interesting comments. His hot comments became the talk of the town and grabbed everyone’s attention.
The director invoked the demand-supply formula and said that based on the market value of the stars they get the remunerations. Many are seeing this as indirect support to Chiranjeevi.
At the Waltair Veerayya function’ Chiranjeevi asked why so much focus is being put on industry-related issues as if there are no other issues. With RGV saying that the heroes get remuneration as per their market value’ many say that he might have extended his support for the star.
On the other hand’ RGV is also said to have responded to the movie ticket prices row. Responding to this’ the director reportedly said that hiking the movie ticket prices is based on the market the film has’ and making a film on a big budget cannot be the reason for the price hike. Remunerations of the heroes and the movie ticket price are two crucial issues in the industry right now.
The Andhra Pradesh government imposed certain guidelines to get a hike in ticket prices. The maverick director responded to the two issues and gave his take on them. Interestingly’ Ram Gopal Varma came with a critical point of view on them.
