Popular Telugu producers seek intervention of trade bodies to avert clash with ‘2.0’
Popular Telugu producers Bunny Vas and DVV Danayya have requested the timely intervention of Telugu Film Producers’ Council and Exhibitors Association to decide on allowing Rajinikanth’s 2.0 release on April 27th, 2018 in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana.
Since Allu Arjun’s Naa Peru Surya and Mahesh Babu’s Bharath Ane Nenu are also slated to hit screens on April 27th and both Bunny Vas and DVV Danayya had already announced the release date much before Lyca Productions did, they are now up in arms to stop 2.0 release.
“Tollywood has always respected and embraced other language cinema. But a bigger project like Robo 2.0 changing their release dates has caused confusion among producers. All the Telugu movie producers who are releasing in the months of Apr and May are in discussions to avoid any competition among ourselves. However, this sudden announcement by ROBO 2 team to release in the month of April has left all the Telugu releases to further confusion. At this juncture, we request the trade bodies to take a conscious call and arrive at an amicable solution. #Mahesh24 #2Point0,” posted DVV Danayya on Twitter.
