What’s making the news
It was earlier reported that in solidarity with the Tamil Film Producers Council and the strike called by them in protest against the Virtual Print Fee (VPF) charged by the Digital Service Providers, the Telugu film producers council will not be screening any Telugu films in Tamil Nadu from Sunday onwards, including Samantha Akkineni and Ram Charan starrer Rangasthalam which has been performing well at the box office. However, according PR person Vamsi Kaka, the film will continue to run in Chennai theatres unless there is an official statement from the producers council.
#Rangasthalam will have a full run in Tamil Nadu. No official statement from the Telugu Producer Council about the film’s screening to be stopped from this Sunday. Don’t believe in false news/rumors pic.twitter.com/07BJOZ7vsL
