The SMS which hurt Tollywood biggies
X
Several Tollywood biggies like Chiranjeevi, Dasari Narayana Rao, Krishna, Vijaya Nirmala, Kodanda Rami Reddy, Adiseshagiri Rao and others have given the 100 Years of Indian Cinema celebrations a miss. The organizers have invited the celebs for the Centenary Celebrations through an SMS and this procedure really hurt the noted actors and technicians in the Industry. This is said to be the reason behind their absence!


SMS: "Limited Number of Invitations for Grand celebration of Telugu Cinema at Indian Cinema Centenary Celebrations in Chennai at 6.00 pm on 22.9.2013 received in Producers Council Office will be issued to Members on First Come first basis. Plz collect immediately. TFPC."

"Producers desirous of obtaining invitation (Entry pass) for INDIAN CINEMA CENTENARY Celebrations scheduled from 21 to 24th Sep 2013 at Chennai, may collect personally from the Help Desk at the Venue (Nehru Stadium) or South Indian Film Chamber Office-TFPC."


Even the Tollywood celebs who graced the celebrations haven't been pleased with the way organizers have treated them and most of them opine Telugu Cinema was insulted. While the organizers failed to treat the legends of Tollywood equally with those of other Industries, R Narayana Murthy's unacceptable behaviour and actress Kavitha's outburst over not receiving the invitation have only defamed the Telugu Film Industry. While all the other Southern Industries remained united during celebrations, it was TFI which indulged in ego clashes and dirty politics.
