Though several biggies announced the new release dates of their films, the filmmakers are worried about the ticket pricing GO in Andhra Pradesh. Though the cases of coronavirus are coming down, the night curfew is yet to be lifted. 50 percent occupancy is not a barrier for the month of February as there are no biggies releases except Ravi Teja’s Khiladi. The makers of Khiladi sold off the theatrical rights for huge prices and the film will hit the screens only after the night curfews are lifted in the state. The film may not hit the screens on February 11th as per the new update.

The AP Government is expected to submit a detailed report to the AP High Court on February 10th and the Committee met recently and discussed the issue with the distributors and exhibitors. All eyes are now focused on the issue and the film industry is expecting a positive move from the government. Telangana government allowed flexible ticket pricing and the filmmakers are expecting a similar decision from the AP government. If not so, the distributors and producers are expecting a price hike for the tickets.

The AP High Court canceled GO 35 but the AP government sought more time and formed a Committee. A clarity on this is expected soon.
