&nbsp;The fight between exhibitors and producers in the Telugu film industry has been going on for the past few months. The main issue started with rental and revenue sharing for single screen theatres. Many exhibitors from Telangana said they are facing heavy losses because of high film rentals and strict terms from producers. They demanded a fixed percentage model instead of minimum guarantee. Producers did not agree to this at first and talks between both sides failed several times. This created a gap between the Telangana Film Chamber of Commerce and producer groups.Suniel Narang, a well known producer and exhibitor, was heading the Telangana State Film Chamber of Commerce during this time. As president, he tried to bring both sides to the table and solve the issue. Several meetings were held in Hyderabad with key members from the Exhibitors Association and the Producers Council. But no clear solution came out. Social media was also full of posts from theatre owners asking for support. Some exhibitors even threatened to shut single screens if the problem was not fixed before big releases.The pressure kept growing on the Film Chamber because small exhibitors felt their problems were not being heard. There were also reports of internal differences inside the Chamber about how to handle the talks with producers. Due to this, Suniel Narang decided to step down from his post. On May 20 in Hyderabad, he sent his resignation letter to the executive committee. The committee checked the letter and accepted it right away. They said they respect his decision and relieved him from the president post with immediate effect.After his resignation, the Film Chamber said it will continue talks with all parties to find a middle path. The exhibitors are asking for a better revenue model and quick release of pending dues. Producers are looking for safety for their investments. The industry is now waiting to see who will take charge next and how the new leadership will handle the issue. Many feel a joint meeting with government support may be needed to solve the matter before the next festival season. &nbsp;
