'Sankranthi Movies, ticket hikes, benefit shows no longer a priority': Dil Raju after meeting Telangana CM Revanth Reddy

In a significant meeting between representatives of the Telugu film industry and Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy, key issues affecting the industry were discussed. Dil Raju, the newly appointed chairman of Telangana’s Film Development Corporation (FDC), was present at the meeting and shared the details with the media.

While Dil Raju indirectly referenced the stampede incident during the screening of Pushpa 2, he focused on broader matters. The producer explained that the conversation centered on the Telugu film industry's growing influence on a national scale. The Chief Minister emphasized his vision for Hyderabad to not only be a major hub for Indian cinema but also to evolve into an international film industry hotspot.

Dil Raju pointed out that concerns like ticket price hikes, benefit shows, and even the traditional Sankranthi movie rush were now secondary priorities in the face of this larger ambition.
