In the wake of the Andhra Pradesh government's decision to introduce an
online movie ticketing system, Telugu megastar Chiranjeevi has appealed
to Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy to consider hiking ticket
prices in the interest of filmmakers.
This decision by the AP government was not well-received by the biggies of the industry. Chiranjeevi, on Thursday took to his social media to make an appeal to the Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister.
In the note, he first appreciates the idea of an online ticketing system, as it improves the transparency for the moviegoers in the state. On the other hand, Chiranjeevi appeals to consider the ticket prices, based on the ticket prices in the other states.
In his note, Chiranjeevi made it clear that the ticket prices by the state government are not in the favour of the moviemakers who invest everything in the movies. "Please consider hiking the prices of the tickets, otherwise, this might become a threat to the investors and the moviemakers," Chiranjeevi said.
Chiranjeevi had earlier tried to discuss the issue ever since the government revised the ticket prices. He is also the first star from the industry who has openly appealed to the government of Andhra Pradesh to make necessary changes in the Bill passed in the state Assembly. - IANS
