Cinema Theatre Ticket Prices Row: Ram Gopal Varma Slams Andhra Pradesh Govt, Asks, ‘Isn’t It In Direct Violation Of Article 14 Which Prohibits Discrimination?’
Ram Gopal Varma took to Twitter to lash out at Andhra Pradesh government over low film ticket pricing in the state
Maharashtra state allowing @ssrajamouli ‘s RRR ticket price to sell at Rs 2200/- and his home state AP not even allowing to sell at Rs 200/- raises an existential question “WHO KILLED KATTAPPA? “

In another state tickets being sold for even Rs 2200 and in AP state if even Rs 200 isn’t allowed , isn’t it in direct violation of article 14 which prohibits discrimination?

Is the AP government putting a restriction on the sale price of any other privately manufactured product apart from films ? If so we would like to know the products names and their reasons for doing so

My final submission on this subject is for Government to leave the pricing ,no.of shows and timings of shows to the film industry and just concentrate both its energy and resources only on enforcing safety regulations and transaction transparency for it to collect its due taxes
