What did Cinematography minister Komatireddy Venkatareddy said about Pushpa 2?

In a recent media interaction, Cinematography minister Komatireddy Venkatareddy said that, “If you like Pushpa 2, do watch it. Even I watched the movie, but I felt like I wasted 3 and a half hours of my valuable time. I could have visited at least 10 villages during that time. The film is spoiling the youths. From now on, I’ll only watch movies made on themes like our gods, our rich history, and the Telangana revolution”.

He also said, “The government will carefully examine if the film is based on the country’s freedom struggle, the Telangana movement, the anti-drugs campaign, and other socially relevant movies”.

Restrictions by Telangana Government post stampede

However, the government will continue to extend special incentives for the promotion of the film industry. He also declared that the government will not increase the rates of cinema tickets.
