Cinema is an art and art can never be bounded by boundaries or regional feelings. But unfortunately Tollywood has been going through a very bad time from the past three years after the Telangana issue has started. There were instances when Puri Jagannadh’s office got attacked, Mahesh Babu’s film sets were set on fire etc.
Still, Tollywood and Telangana share an unbreakable love story. On a practical aspect, the Naizam area is the biggest market for Tollywood films and maximum revenue comes from there especially for star hero films. At the same time, the people of Andhra Pradesh are big lovers of cinema and they have welcomed stars from all backgrounds.
Today, discussions about a new Telangana movie council being setup is coming but the truth is Tollywood can never breakup with Telangana or vice versa. Cinema is an integral part of every Telugu person so one should not bring politics or regional feelings into it and let the industry do its job to entertain the people.
