Hyderabad: As a mark of respect and sorrow, the Telugu film industry has declared a complete halt to all film shoots planned for tomorrow. This step is taken to honour the late Sri Ramoji Rao, an eminent figure in Indian cinema and media.
Rao, the visionary founder of the Ramoji Group of companies and the iconic Ramoji Film City, breathed his last at the age of 87 here on Saturday. His demise has deeply saddened the nation, with tributes pouring in from various quarters, including renowned personalities like Rajinikanth, SS Rajamouli, Cheeranjeevi, Allu Arjun, Ram Charan, and many others.
In a gesture of homage, the Telugu Film Chamber of Commerce has opted to call off all film-related activities for a day. This move underscores the significant contribution of Ramoji Rao to the industry and his enduring legacy that has shaped the Telugu cinema for over decades.
