‘Hall Of Fame’ Controversy: Allu Fans Perfect Counter

Pictures of legends like Christopher Nolan, Spielberg, and Indian directors like SS Rajamouli, Sandeep Reddy Vanga, Prashant Neel, Rishab Shetty, Vetrimaran, Atlee, Maniratnam, Trivikram, Sukumar, Raj Kumar Hirani, and others were set up on the wall at Allu Cinemas. However, some have questioned on Twitter what the need is for Allu Arjun to keep any name that’s being suggested by some movie lovers. And their retort went like this:

“At the Cinema Museum in Mumbai, which was set up by the Central Government, there’s no film like Baahubali on display, and that could be questioned because it was established with public money. Why worry about a private entitlement like Allu Cinemas, in a land purchased commercially, unlike Ramoji Film City or Annapurna Studios, which have government-given lands at cut-throat prices? Also, some are saying that it’s not Madame Tussauds museum that the Allu family has to keep every celebrity who has won fame, but this is their private property and a cinema theatre.”

At the same time, some folks who have visited Allu Cinemas are making comments about the prices of “snacks” at the theatre, though they are on par with other multiplex chains in Hyderabad city. Fans are asking, “Why should you talk about the prices of snacks? Why not talk about the all flat (1.85/1.9: 1) Aspect Ratio at Allu Cinemas, which is the first in India?”

Looks like the erstwhile fanwars on Twitter are getting into attacking Allu Cinemas and the prices of snacks, rather than cherishing the fact that Hyderabad got its first Dolby experience on a perfectly flat, large screen.
