The contrast between Tollywood's interactions with jagan Mohan reddy and pawan kalyan reflects a dramatic shift in their experiences with Andhra Pradesh's leadership.
Under jagan Mohan Reddy's governance, the relationship between the film industry and the government was strained. The government's policies, especially regarding ticket prices for big-budget films like Pawan Kalyan's 'Vakeel Saab', were perceived as punitive and unfair. Requests from Tollywood's prominent figures, such as chiranjeevi, Mahesh Babu, and Prabhas, to reconsider these measures were reportedly disregarded. The visuals of chiranjeevi appearing subservient during meetings further fueled criticism of Jagan's approach towards the industry.
In stark contrast, Pawan Kalyan's election victory marked a turning point. His party, Janasena, data-aligned with the nda alliance, leading to Jagan's defeat. Subsequently, tollywood leaders, now relieved and optimistic, visited pawan kalyan with congratulatory wishes. They expressed satisfaction that someone like Pawan Kalyan, with a personal understanding of the film industry's challenges, would prioritize their concerns. The meeting was described as cordial, with pawan kalyan attentively engaging with industry representatives, leaving them visibly pleased.
The shift in treatment from Jagan's tenure to Pawan Kalyan's leadership is evident in the industry's demeanor and the reported atmosphere during these encounters. It underscores how political changes can significantly influence relations between the government and crucial sectors like the film industry.
