NTR Meets Huge Crowd As Dragon Teaser Drops On Birthday

&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;

The film will be streaming from 22 May on Amazon Prime Video.Jyothika is playing the role of a stenographer in the courtroom. Speaking about it, she said “I think there’s a power in silence and composure. There’s an inner depth to it, and I consider myself very lucky that I’m attracting these kinds of roles because, even as an actor, it’s a very complex emotion and at the same time very difficult to perform.”She continued . “It’s always easier to perform when you have dialogues and words, but silence speaks through the eyes. I feel it’s the highest form of art for an actor to emote through silence. I’m extremely happy because I think it also forms the backbone of womanhood, and that translates into my character in System.”She added “When you watch the film, you realise I’m portraying a person you cannot fully penetrate at a superficial level. If, over the two hours of the film, I’m able to convince audiences that there is some turmoil within her without expressing it through words, then I feel the performance has achieved its purpose.”&nbsp;

&nbsp;Kangana Ranaut furious on dowry deaths. The spate of dowry deaths sent shivers down the spines of all across the country. What surprised all is these dowry deaths happened in rich and affluent families.In the midst of all this, Kangana Ranaut came up with a powerful take. She posted "So much tragic news about married young women comes up every day, many of these young, educated ladies even beg their parents to help them out of suffocating situations before tragedies strike them, but Indian society is notorious for abandoning daughters once they are married."Kangana added "My advice to young women out there is that no social media or fashion/dating/wedding/make-up industry is telling you. Your career is more important than anyone else in your life. Think about marriage only after you are independent, please; you have to be your own hero; no one is coming to save you. What you do and who you are more important than who you marry. Build a life that you want, don't listen to anyone." &nbsp;
