Interestingly, Jagan did not ask just to shoot more films in Vizag but asked Tollywood to 'Shift' to the coastal city which is surprising many. He also said that films made on a budget of more than 100 crores should be treated separately. He claimed that if any film costs more than a hundred crores excluding the remunerations of star heroes and directors, it should be given support or no one would produce grand films in the coming days. He also claimed that online ticket sales are good as the OTT platforms are giving content for just 1000 rupees for a whole year. Jagan stated that the film industry will face tough situations if they fail to get proper revenues.
