No benefit show for Bahubali: Talasani

Minister for Cinematography Talasani Srinivas Yadav today denied that the State government has given permission to Bahubali -2 for benefit shows to be screened. He took serious exception to the theatre owners, who are trying to mint money through black tickets’ sale and duping people in the name of combo tickets and increasing ticket price for Bahubali screening.

The State government has accorded permission for fifth show screening only, he clarified. However, the minister was furious on the issue. The government would take serious action against such erring theaters for benefit shows and selling combo tickets, he warned. The government will not tolerate any sort of inconvenience caused to the people, the minister said. (NSS)
