Tollywood actors always seem to be the first ones to announce their donation towards relief programs or some sort of relief exercises during severe circumstances.
While we cannot expect them to come out of their homes and work for public cause at this point of time, they can announce some relief measures like donating to charity or CM relief funds or trying to set up a fund for workers who won't be working for days together during the lockdowns.
Prakash Raj announced that he has given his staff salaries in advance and gave several daily workers on his productions, funds to survive for a month.
He also said that he tried to arrange for food stocks to people who are desperately in need of them around in his neighborhood.
Manoj Manchu did try do the same and Nithiin announced Rs. 10 lakhs each to both Telugu States CM relief funds to fight Covid-19.
But the big stars like Mahesh, Jr. NTR, Ram Charan, Allu Arjun came out and clapped but they did not announce any relief measures like the above mentioned stars.
Even normally proactive people during these situations like Rana Daggubati, Vijay Deverakonda are circumspect about the situation.
May be everyone is scared about the economical slow down that virus has caused and it will show affect for few months until we all can require. May be they want to start working again before they pledge such support?
We cannot say anything for sure but the big heads of the Tollywood industry might come together after situation is settled to tackle the financial necessities too. Let's hope they all will come up with long term solutions to all the problems, persisting.
