Ticket hikes have become a major topic of discussion on social media and in Telugu cinema circles. While the governments of both Telugu states support ticket hikes, some audiences are unhappy with the increased prices.
Films like Irumudi have proved that strong content can bring audiences to theatres even without hikes.
Mythri Movie Makers recently announced that there will be no ticket hike for Ranabaali, starring Vijay Devarakonda.
Vijay also said that he wants to avoid ticket hikes for his future films. He explained that he personally does not support higher prices, but the decision is not always in his hands.
Producers investing heavily may need hikes to recover costs. Still, Vijay promised to avoid them in the future.
