Andhra Talk: Coastal Andhrites 'Spitting' On KCR

It is obvious that KCR bagged the hatred of coastal Andhrites with the entire Telangana agitation episode. People of different backgrounds are coming up with their opinions strongly on KCR. To start with, the Jana Vignana Vedika President Alapati Srinivas said, “It’s an uncomfortable zone for coastal Andhrites. They have become Jews in their own land. KCR should be blamed for this”. In fact, the terms ‘freedom at midnight’ used by Telangana activists in support of KCR raised curtains for opinions that coastal Andhrites or settlers in Hyderabad are on par with British rulers! “KCR has pumped in hatred between Telangana natives and Andhra settlers years together. He is responsible for the split. Otherwise, the hatred wouldn’t be of this sort”, said Prof NKV Rao. “Sonia Gandhi is Italian. Is she aware of the history of AP that was formed with the unity of all Telugu speaking people?”, asks a rickshaw puller. The opinions are very straight and with similar tone from every corner of Andhra Pradesh. “We should spit on KCR’s face. He is not a sincere fellow. He acted as if he was fasting. If fasting can bring separate state, I too can sit for separate East Godavari. It is very funny”, shouted Rani, at a church in Guntur. “Union Cabinet conspired for this split and it’s an end for Congress in India”, said a businessman from Rajahmundry. The opinions also recalled YSR in some places. “Had YSR was alive, he wouldn’t let this be”, said an auto driver in Vijayawada. The hatred is not just on KCR but also on Sonia, Chidambaram and Veerappa Moili.

Reel Talk: 2nd Big Blow For Tollywood

The cause for a bandh happens to be the politicians and whenever there is a fall in daily business and economy that is due to the politicians only. Bearing the brunt at all times would be the common man and his resources. One among them happens to be the Tollywood circuit.  
The ongoing Telangana agitation has given a big blow to the Telugu film circuit and reports are arriving that there are no proper collections. Also, even the publicity of the films has got affected due to no media coverage. All channels have been focusing solely on the political chaos than anything else.
The T-issue has been tearing the tissues of the Tollywood box office and for the consecutive second week, the collections have been hit badly. The looks of it suggest that it will be a while before all this would settle so the Tollywood fraternity has been under severe tensions as to what will happen to their big budget flicks.
