Some Telugu film industry people believe that Nagarjuna had always been optimistic about ongoing issues like online ticketing and theatres, and hence these things were discussed during the meeting.

Though the motive behind Nagarjuna’s sudden meet with the CM is unknown, what is known to all is about the ongoing ticket prices in the state. Post-Covid, the Andhra Pradesh government had ordered to reduce the prices of the movie tickets, which was not received well by the theatre owners, and other businessmen who are dependant on this trade.
Several other actors like Chiranjeevi, along with directors and producers had raised this issue, and tried to explain to the state government but to no avail. Now that the superstar has met the CM, the industry folks are hopeful that existing issues would be resolved.
