A joint meeting was held between leading Telugu film industry producers, distributors and exhibitors of both Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, to make a decision about the ongoing dispute over revenue share models. Following the meet, Telugu Film Chamber of Commerce (TFCC) officially held a press meet to provide clarity on the discussion.

Addressing the media, TFCC secretary KL Damodar Prasad stated, “The meeting was held in a healthy manner, and on a positive note. We reached the conclusion that theatres will continue to remain open.  We are going to form a committee with members from all bodies, have a meeting on May 30, and travel further on a positive note in this discussion.”

Damodar Prasad also mentioned that they plan to maintain a timeline and address the issues raised by all the three sectors because ‘the issues of all these sectors are interlinked.’
