At the outset, the Telugu Film Industry conveys its sincere thanks to Sri A. Revanth Reddy garu, Hon’ble Chief Minister of Telangana State and Sri Komatireddy Venkatreddy garu, Hon’ble Minister for Cinematography for evincing keen interest for development of Telugu Film Industry in the State of Telangana. Our sincere appreciation to Sri Revanth Reddy for hearing us and discussing the recent strides made by the Telugu Film Industry in expanding its footprint PAN India and raising its standards to match the Hollywood films.

We are very happy to note that the Government of Telangana is instituting “Gaddar” Awards to felicitate artistes and technicians not limiting to Telugu Film Industry but extending the same to other fields representing Art and Craft. Keeping this in view, we had a discussion about forming a Committee in coordination with Telangana State TV & Film Development Corporation. We, Telugu Film Chamber of Commerce and Telugu Film Producers’ Council will constitute a Committee consisting of Representatives from Telugu Film Industry and formulate required guidelines in consultation with Telangana State TV & Film Development Corporation and present the same to Hon’ble Chief Minister and Hon’ble Cinematography Minister at the earliest.
