Tamil Super Stars like Rajinikanth, Kamal Hassan, Vijay, Karthi, Suriya, Dhanush, Vikram etc., are popular stars in Telugu States. Their movies has been doing fabulous business in the Telugu speaking states. Their market range here varies from Rs. 5 Crores to as much as Rs. 30 Crores. Though the Tamil Super Stars haven’t come forward with their bit chipping in to support Telugu cine workers is what some of our Telugu producers are saying.
Producer Bandla Ganesh is one of the first producers to talk on this issue. Tamil dubbed films are eating up a lot of business in Telugu markets. They have got revenue, fan base and market from Telugu States. I believe Tamil Super Stars can do their bit from their huge earnings.
It is known that only Thalapathy Vijay has contributed so far. He has made a donation of Rs. 5 Lakhs each to the Two Telugu States CM relief funds. Producer Abhishek Nama too criticized Tamil Super Stars. Telugu States became Tamil Stars’ biggest market after Tamil Nadu. These are unprecedented times and Telugu Cine Workers are struggling to meet their needs. Tamil Stars can chip in with their bit, They haven’t responded from the last two months even we sent feelers from the last two months is what Abhishek Nama opined.
