The slogan-shouting Telangana activists on Wednesday attacked a film crew engaged in shooting near Alluru village in Ranga Reddy district. The lead actor of the yet-to-be-titled film, Allari Naresh, and heroine Purnima were present at the site when the attack took place. The film is being produced by Vijay Prasad and directed by Nageshwar Reddy.
As the shooting was in progress, the agitators stormed the spot and obstructed their work. They also destroyed the setting made for the film and set it afire. The members of the film unit quietly retreated from the place.
Vijay Prasad said that they had obtained prior permission from the authorities concerned for the shooting, originally scheduled to take place last month. However, the shooting was suspended for a few days on the request of Telangana agitators. When they set everything ready for shooting, the agitators stormed the village again and went berserk, setting the film set ablaze.
