While the shutdown of shootings is till March 21st, the latest developments around COVID-19 pandemic are indicating that Tollywood might get shut until further notice as the cases are steadily rising in India. Of course, our heroes are not wasting time by sitting idle in these times, but actually using it for a better purpose.
The likes of Chiranjeevi and Mahesh Babu are getting Qube prints of various films to their home theatres in order to catch up all the pending movies. Some of the heroines like Samantha have switched on their OTT apps to binge watch some web series. While some are doing home workouts and else, actually heroes like Allu Arjun are said to be coming to the office daily to listen to narrations from various directors.
Reports are coming out that the likes of Nani, Varun Tej, Vijay Devarakonda, Ram Pothineni and Sai Dharam Tej are also said to be meeting various budding directors, writers and other people to listen to their ideas, stories and scripts. By ‘listening’ to such stuff, they want to find out what kind of thought process is going on in the current generation, it looks like.
With these chaps in ‘listening’ mode, hope Tollywood comes up with some creative stuff post the industry opens after COVID-19 pandemic.
